Who is a ricer and what is a ricer? well i'm not into cars being all done up for show as i like the plain nice looking cars are cars with no interior at all such as race cars, so there for i will look at any car thats had a body kit put on it and say its rice but i might just mean that in the same way as calling my mate gay when he has his girl friend standing right there next to him, i'm sure we all know about calling our mates or other people gay even when we know there not, we do it just for the sake of saying the word. which is the same for ricer, look at the cars on Fast and the Furious, i call them rice simply because so much has been done to the outside of them, yet they arn't truly rice as they have had a lot done under the bonnet as well. i guess the word "rice" has just become a common word we use to describe anyone thats has put stickers or a body kit on their car. but the only real rice cars out there are the ones which have had a half ass job done to them so you know they are trying to make the car look good but instead made it look worse "in my eyes" show cars or cars that have been stripped down to a shell and rebuilt to show spec i wouldn't class as rice as they have put thousands of dollars into it and done a fantastic job. yet the bloke down the street who tries to do the same thing but only spends $500 and makes it look dodgy as. and now thinks everyone will like his fully sick car then that is rice. I'd love to go and put a Detomaso Charade Body Kit on my car as they look fucking awsome "i mean the original production built Detomaso Charade Kit" but i would not be able to bring myself to doing it as i can't put something like that on my car without the performance to match. we can't really complain about other peoples views and opionions as if we all had the exact same tasts and likes then it would be a very boring world, there's nothing wrong with speaking out and saying your point of view. Its only a problem when you direct those views in an insulting way at a particular person. whats the old saying "Horses for Courses" and i don't see how anyone can look at this thread and honestly decide not to join the Toymods club because of it. there is nothing wrong with showing how you feel and speaking your mind. its all good unless we make it personal, thats when we get the problems. I've only been to one event that was organised on this Forum and that was one I organised myself where we went down wisemans ferry ect, few turned up and sure there was cars that showed up that i didn't really like and one or two that i thought were buckets of shit but hey "thats just my opinion" but that doesn't matter as we were all there for one reason and had one thing in common, we loved our cars, we loved working on them, we loved doing them up in our own way and we loved driving them, and thats what a Club is all about. A Club is a group of people that all have differant opionions and views on Topics yet we all have one thing in Common and thats our love for modified cars HOWEVER THEY ARE MODIFIED. and not one thing that is said in this thread can change the fact we are all people that love cars. and thats what this club is all about so anything else that is said on the Forum is pointless and means nothing because in the end it just comes down to the CAR's. Sorry if this is hard to understand and hard to read, English isn't my strong point [Updated on: Sat, 16 August 2003 04:01] [Report message to a moderator]
