Burnt tips always get attention, I've had numerous people compliment me on the tips. And then it attracted the attention of the police and got an exhaust ticket. But it's a matter of personal taste. Some people like it some people don't.

Since we are on the topic of titanium tips, does the Invidia N1 Ti-Tip Dual Exhaust provide any performance gains?

Most catbacks do not have any to very very little gains. Most hp gains you see from exhausts are from the headers/if you replace any of the cats. To increase horsepower by exhaust you have to maximize air flow.

Before I was in my FRS I was deeply into the Honda scene. On Honda-Tech Forums everyday so my opinion of rice may be a little different. As a previous Honda owner you know we have to deal with the "rice" talk on a daily basis. Rice to me is oversized body kits, wings, wheels (chrome rims) on stock cars. Changing body parts from different models (skyline taillights in a civic) And most of all fake "replica" parts. Neon lights, and to many stickers advertising the real parts you don't even have on your car, oh and graffics/vinyls.
I have an authentic HKS Hipower exhaust with burnt tip made in Japan so I do not consider it to be rice. (of course this is my opinion, not here to argue) At the end of the day do what you like its your car -CAMBAM

Nice or Rice: Burnt Titanium Tips

Hondas done right are really nice, a friend of mine owns a race EG6 that can keep up with E46 M3 no problem at all on road & not to mention dusting m3 on track. |

Hondas can be great platforms to build a cheap race car. But you know how people get "its front wheel drive" lol. They can be fun to though.
