Yep, I expect that on cheaper cars to an extent. But to see that on a more expensive car like a Viper is surprising. And it is on the very crazy end of "ricedom" at that. Jeez, I don't even know where to begin with the harsh/sarcastic comments.

It's a first generation Viper. It's not an expensive car anymore.

Well, in his defense it is a scion, and apparently scion=rice... Now, if it was a subaru with a rb kit it would be "bad ass" or "perfect"

^sarcasm.

Look at all those screws though

Acceptable for track (Or not considering it is likely heavy), but not for road use. It looks ridiculous for daily use.

But that is my opinion

Considering it appears to have brake cooling ducts and no turn signal or side markers, i would assume it is a track or show car. Read: assume.

I also do not like the exposed rivets on a street car, and for the amount of work to install this kit properly (cutting fenders etc) i would surely (if i was getting an rb kit) pay to have the entire kit molded as id already be permanently committing to rb forever by cutting all 4 fender arches and putting 50 rivets through the body.

Because racecar.

Exposed rivets are awesome. I don't like molded kits with a shitload of bondo on them, looks even more ridiculous.

Its 2013, molded no longer equates to bondo everywhere
