The issue is that while anyone can rice out a car, Scion actively promotes rice and tries to get people to have their rice dealer-installed.

As for your TRD rants, I half agree. There have been discussions here about how TRD has fallen from its past. They've made some incredible parts available in the past (my wheels or my buddy's diff for example). But lately it has become an empty brand for dealers to pimp out, or to commit atrocities to its former glorious name with stuff like the Celica you referenced.

The TRD off-road parts are pretty much the last legitimate parts being made. And if you think that trucks don't 'race' oh boy...
