Funny how "ricer" styled was not made fun of in the late 90's/early 2000's. Now "JDM, DTM, VIP, hellaflush" styles are getting played out. Are we seeing a trend here? What's next? "Stock syle?"

Only if you weren't around until the mid 2000s, it was used well before then.

The term "Ricer" started popping up, AFAIK, in the mid 90's after people started ricing out their Jap cars (mostly Honda's around where I live, may be different for other areas).

Rice seems like it peaked right after the first Fast and the Furious movie came out.

At least in my town, the rice usually consists of bad body kits where each piece is a different color (plain primer is most common, either black or white), huge wings, and fart can mufflers.

I know that the wings are functional for downforce on high speed turns at a track, but for the ricers around in my area, they are purely for aesthetics.

I know that high flow muffler designs can offer power improvements, but when the car sounds like a loud angry bumble bee going 0-60 in 10-12 seconds... why try to make the car sound fast?

And the cars with a black front bumper, white rear bumper, and the base color of the color is neither black nor white... lol... and the body kits themselves are usually eye sores, too.

I should start snapping pics when I see them on the road, haha.

Anyways, carry on.
