dear fellow celicans,
i've been spotted by this so called "rice trooper". it was near school. i just street parked my car to go into 7/11 and get a cup of coffee and when i come back, BAM! ricecop ticket. i was readin through the list of my offenses and i found: excessively large exhaust tip (it's a cat back not just a tip), improperly lowered (i only hab kyb's in the rear, it's still stock height), outrageous body kit, pointless big wing, and altezza head light(?) i didnt even know they existed.
anyways, i was deeply hurt by this ticket even though i know is just a stupid thing, and i juss wanted to vent.
guys would u look at my profile and tell me if my car is ricey.
their website is www.ricecop.com

The only thing ricey that i can see is ur tail light covers.
The exhaust looks kinda big too, how wide is that?
So i just went to the site, some of it has nothing to do with rice. They have old Impala's and trucks that even if it was awful, wouldnt be ricey.
They do have some full fledged rice stuff tho. Like the Ford Taurus w/aluminum wing, Malibu with VTEC sticker, thats rice, but some of it is just ridiculous.
This kid was in my car club and now he's top 10 Rice. 2 Years ago he won Best Of Show in the OnAll4sCarClub car show in Dutchess, NY

i dont think your car is really "rice." even though it is a big wing, it fits the aggressive style of your invader kit so i dont know what else to say.

the wing and body kit isnt so bad
that exhaust tip is humogous though
also i dont like the speakers in the hatch cover thing. i would've bought a box for them...just imagine how you are going to sell the car to someone with two holes in there

just add a apexi N1 exhaust. its not to big or to small and sounds nice. but over all the car is not bad. most of the time the rice cop tickets are from little kids driving around in daddys car.

OMG! just a bunch of haters! There are profesional touring cars in the rice or not part and people have them rated pretty close to RICE! Ha if an audi touring car is rice, then damn I wish I was rice!
edit: more in depth, ferrari's rated as rice???? there is a nice eclipse, and some other pretty nice cars... The Civic with the "R" logo you can buy from kragens is definitly rice but some of these other cars are definitly not!

http://www.ricecop.com/viewpic.php?picture=Orange-MR2-1.jpgthis mr2 got a ticket for "oversized wing" and "outrageous bodykit"
that wing isnt much bigger then my stocker, and the bumper is ugly, but i kinda like that front.

On that site it depends on who does the ticket. Most of them are right, in my opinion.

that site is dumb
all the non ricers as they call it have domestics.
there are some imports out there that arent ricers...
and they cant even get their facts straight
they called an acura a import...umm hello its built in the U.S.
