Official Ricers Thread

[GhostRai]

Okay, you guys tell me. I think this is a bit ricey, but others somehow like the way it looks. I'll sum up the mods that I know of.

- Orange Plasti-dip your expensive wheels because yolo
- Front tow hook because track day bro (He drives fast on the street, not the track)
- M stripes on the grill because it isn't a M3
- Carbon fibre hood
- CF wrap across the entire dash because nothing says lightweight like adding weight
- Stickers everywhere because you gotta display your sponsors... bro
- Canards and a huge GT wing for that massive down force to get you to the McDonald's drive-through .5 seconds quicker
- OH BUT WAIT! It has a Borla (exhaust?) and a CAI so it's all good.

If any of you are wondering about the license plate, that is his initials, and his girlfriends initials..yup.

This guy used to go to my old high school. He used to have a Maserati Gran Turismo...right until he crashed it into a tree and was only left with this BMW

For sure! I do want to hang out/cruise for a day with fellow owners from Oregon and Cali during the trip.

Risottoer to be precise.

From a local car show.
Not shown:
Lambo doors on front
Welded chain steering wheel
Two different rims on passenger side
Two foot high, vertical 8 inch stove pipe truck exhaust
Totally baffed out engine


Written on driver's door "Let me guess...license and registration"

The rusted and oxidized hoods scream of a certain devotion to their well styled and frankly beatiful machines.

Fierce teeth which remind us what roamed the earth long before we primatives rose to two feet. Almost mythical, these beasts, and what a profound reproduction this graphic is. Witty, almost depricating statements scrawled along the door. A certain gold flavor to accent a green as robust as a rain forest. And last but not least, an almost charming, naive sense of pride for this machine of mechanical and aesthetic bliss which the inhabitants of this place would have been robbed of seeing if not placed before their eyes by the owner. Like a mother showing off their newborn. Look at the baby. Look at the baby. Elaine, you gotta get a baby.

Ya his buddy in the Cavalier beside him is having a rough time getting his hood to rust. He has obviously be diligent in scoring the paint but he can not seem to reach that coveted oxidized look and his crew must be questioning his devotion. The truck marker lights on his roof and his home made plywood wing do off set his failure some what.


Actually I applauded the guys because they don't take themselves seriously. When asked "why?" their response was "can't afford real cars, already owned these so if we can't do show or go we will shoot for shock value". Their whole plan is to make them as tacky as possible and they say their style is "redneck rice". There were about 5 of them but phone died before I could get many pics.

^^^^ Saw a couple like those at a show in Ohio two years ago. Ummm....it is a look, I guess.

This thread had inspired me to do a tasteless ricer build, so here we go...

Added a bunch of stickers from companies that have no attachment whatsoever to old ass Honda scooters



Zipties to hold on the body work for the JDMness


Also it has a 12v electrical system so I've just purchased some of these on amazon


And perhaps I'll go to autozone tomorrow and pick up some vents...
