yeah, well while you are continuing to be a douchebag and not know anything about anything, leave my name out of it, because like you said, theres only one person who knows the real truth, and it definitely doesnt sound like that person is you. Just because you heard my name from somebody who told you i was arrested before doesnt make it cool for punks like you to try to put my name on everything else. I learned my lesson a long ass time ago and i'm definitely not stupid enough to be doing that shit after what i went through, nor do i even want to, so why dont you chill the fuck out with all these unfounded accusations, and get it back to what its about: Drivin

Probably not because most have no intentions of ever racing.
that's a very good point. i guess that would be the limit btwn a riced out car and a show car. i didn't mean to talk about the nice looking cars with kits. more of the ugly ones, haha. maybe it was just the way i was introduced to rice. i always saw it as mods that did nothing for performance. example: cut springs *cough, marshall *, tips (rahter than catbacks), aluminum wings on fwd (well that can be debatable. wings do help fwd, but at higher speeds), etc. you get my drift. sure, if you have a nice body kit, that's commendable. i love to look at nice looking cars. but oh wellz. to each his own, hehe.

like i just mentioned, i have nothing against looking good. and no, i didn't go one way because of lack of funds. i'm doing so because i want a clean-looking car. if i were to get anything else, i'd just get some kouki s14 sideskirts and rear bumper to give a better look, but i don't think i'd want a car with a full body kit or an wing. i don't want to attract too much attention to my car from either cops or thieves. that's just me tho. i want my car to perform rather than attract attention.

nobody should neglect either...and if we all had our way..we would all excel in both. but outside influences inhibit our ability to perform both aspects. like $$$

even performance parts can be ricey too because rice is a relative term. always has been...and always will be.

my point was this...its stereotypical ricer mentality to see a car w/ a body kit, wing, paint job, and nothing else. Hell maybe even some useless 20" rims on a civic. I agree a blend of both is ideal (this is what i shoot for in my cars) but to neglect performance just to have a bodykit or something is horrible i think.

How many of us have seen the cars w/ the body kits and still on stock rims, stock pipe, etc etc.
