everyones definition is different, but i believe mine follows the average definition. anything you put on your car that doesnt add to the performance value of the vehicle. although that is arguable. we have had many long and many locked threads on what the definition is. plus i feel things like rims, and carbon fiber hoods are not rice, even though they really have no performance value, unless they are race rims. if i was going to put aftermarket head lights on my car, they would be the one-piece JDM lights. they are OEM and dont have tinting or anything. but thats because i prefer my lights to perform what they are meant to do instead "looking cool". if you ever race at night, you'll be much happier with the OEM lights, than a set of tinted lights or differnt color bulbs. but maybe thats because im old and married, i dont have to impress anyone with looks.

on top of that, who cares what myself or anyone thinks. its your car to do with what you want. if you want a rice mobile, just a little rice, or a sleeper, its up to you. because in the end, you're the one who has to drive it, not me.
