blue led's? Yikes, not to deter anyone from modifying their beloved g35's, blue led's reminds me the days when "power by _________" (fill in the blanks: honda, vtec, and etc). In my personal opinion, having a g35 is a privilege that exemplifies luxury and class, thus, tasteless mod's should be avoided. With recent decline in our economy, i seen many g35, especially g35 coupes, with "tacky" aka "rice" attributions. I despise, sorry if i offend anyone, the magnetic side fender grill.
NOTE: "just say no to the magnetic fender grill."

Yes it is. Rice is rice wether I say it is or not.

Just because your opinion tells you it's not doesn't mean that it isn't.

No. I just have a problem with half the people on this site thinking that you can't make something look good because they have seen honda drivers do it and make it bad. Not everything that happens to a honda is rice.

Obviously anything can end up looking ricey, it just depends on how it is done. Some things can never look anything but rice.

I'm saying this: calling it "RICE" sounds ridiculously pompous as if anything but your own ideas are not worth a damn.

I'm sure you're going to come back and prove to me that you are pompous with a simple reply.

waiting for it...

Oh the irony.

There's your simple, "pompous" reply.

Did you come from a Honda, a little touchy about this whole thing aren't you?

Oh man, just saw Billet Grill in your sig. Nevermind, this isn't going to go anywhere.

Classic agree to disagree situation.

I'm not saying that some things aren't rice, i think the word rice gets overused way too much.

People act like because we drive Infiniti's that we are better than everyone else. Shooting down peoples ideas without ever seeing them are what I don't like. Nothing else.

If people said this I would agree so much more: "I've seen that, and it really doesn't look good in my opinion. I think that it looks rice."

blah blah blah

anyways, to each there own

To each there own, but if someone doesn't like it, they have as much right to express that as someone who does like it. When you display yourself to the world, you gotta expect to take some criticism

I know. I'm not even defending the idea of blue LEDs, i'm just fighting the stigmatisms that people apply to other people.

Hey, cool! I had a '94 E32 about 10 years ago. Loved it, unfortunately, the icy roads decided to take its life.

Alright.. all of us are on this forum cause we drive one of the best sport sedans made.. why cant we just agree on that and stop being keyboard warriors... all i asked for was some advice or ideas on a topic... if you think someones idea is RICE... just say why you think its rice/tacky and explain what could make it look better instead of being a douche bag to another person who drives the same car you drive... we're all in this together can we just have some positive criticism... and going back to my original thread.. i am no longer gonna do the blue LEDs (not being its rice) but because cops already have a strong disliking towards me.. and im gonna get a HID kit for the fogs.. going with yellow.. thanks for everyone response..
