Re: Clear Corners

They are referring to the lights right below the headlight..
right by the front tire..basically called a side marker..sometimes..
Where it use to be an amber, but now clear...

Re: Clear Corners
Just to clarify, Rice could be done by anybody and has nothing to do with race (so you being Asian has nothing to do with it).
I base Rice on probably the oldest definition as described here:
http://www.riceboypage.com/what_is_riceboy/
Quote:
Who/What Exactly Is a Rice-Boy?
Rice-Boy is a stereotype. The typical Rice-Boy can be identified by his car, or rather what he does to it. Generally, Rice-Boy will start out with a car that was not meant to go fast (typically a Honda Civic), and attempt to "fix it up," usually consisting of aftermarket rims, lowering springs and an aftermarket exhaust system with a large exhaust tip.
Most Rice-Boy cars (or "Rice Rockets") have the usual complement of stickers proudly displaying features that the car might or might not have, most notably, the Honda VTEC sticker from the later model Preludes, and the plaques from the later model Integras.
Rice-Boys do not exclusively drive Japanese cars. There are quite a few fake Mustang '5.0's and Camaro Z28's out there, as well as quite a few strange looking Neons.

Re: Clear Corners
I would also like to quote a friend of mine (an IS300 owner and a very funny guy):
(http://www.is300.net/forum/viewtopic...ghlight=rubley)
You know you're a ricer when...
1. You install leds in the washer nozzles
2. You think clear trunk lights make a statement
3. Your susupension bottoms out running over ladybugs
4. You can't decide which mod to ask your dad for next
5. The girl at the McDonald's drive thru window says "Nice Civic"
6. You think your car is one giant wing away from being a Supra
7. Your brake calipers have more paint on them then your front lip
8. Your car is "sponsored" by a racing team that includes you, your cousin, and your manager at Taco Bell
9. You decorate your locker with Concept Neeper magazine ads
10. You tell everyone your next mod is a turbo, but you know you can't afford a turbo and your next mod is actually a glow-in-the-dark shifter ****
11. You bid on an "Electronic Turbo" on eBay and are confused when it doesn't come with an intercooler
12. You get pissed off reading this list....

Re: Clear Corners
superG35 > Explain to me how you think this post is 'rice'? Clear corners? The body kit? The tail light covers? What are you talking about?
To defend my thread, clear corners don't make the car 'rice'. If you think a simple mod like that is rice then any car that is not stock would be 'rice' in your opinion. The body kit, these pictures were just to show people what i was talking about and because a fellow member wanted to see more pix. Personally, I think the body kit looks very nice as a show car. Tail light covers, I think they look pretty stupid myself.
Please explain because your riceboy website and that top riceboy list doesn't add up to my thread for being 'rice'

Re: Clear Corners
Rumble, you asked
“superG35 > Explain to me how you think this post is 'rice'? Clear corners? The body kit? The tail light covers?”
And the answer is yes to all.
As to your post, I read your original post and the day you posted it, the clear corners by themselves are of course not rice BUT it is defiantly a starting point. If you look at the thread you can see the progression it started with your original post about the clear corners, then LEDs, some comments about the body kit and finally this horrible tail, final result: rice
It is all in good spirits, don’t take it so personally I probably should have started a special thread for this
