It is weird, I have never wanted to mod my car before this (ok, my first car had to have a real radio in it (a one speaker and AM only radio wasn't going to cut it)), but, other than that, I have been bitten by the bug. My dad calls me a ricer now and the only things that I have done are:. Tint, Beat Sonic shark fin, exhaust tips, and LEDs for the dome, trunk, license plate, and reverse lights. The tricky part is having enough money to do the mods I really want to do.

lol, that was my exactly reasoning when I put the kit on my Civic. Was gonna do performance first, but did a 360 on the highway and tore up my bumpers. So ended up doing full kit...

Both my wife and I are vertically challenged, so, we have car seats in both the FR-S and the Sienna. It kinda takes a little skill getting the kids in the back, but, at least we can take whichever car we want.

that's awesome my husband likes to point out that there are car seat latches in his evo too. maybe this means i don't have to get a separate mom car... we can be a little rice family.

in any case, we have some time to figure it out...and i appreciate your post--will definitely keep that in mind

Not sure about rear facing seats working in the FR-S, but, front facing works if you aren't tall.

Sorry for the . Everyone back to ricing.

I think it just goes to show that you that you don't have to be young and single to be a ricer.
