Rice-a-roni
Due to some of the more recent posts that have been popping up from a couple individuals; whom I will leave nameless. I feel that it is my duty to post some links of past threads and some insightful websites that might enlighten a few of these tortured souls (and poor tortured RX8's).

Okay... my point should be made. Let the healing begin!

Touche! The only problem with your theory is what those parts replaced look like *** in the stock version. Flat black plastic covers, and YELLOW fluid covers? Not sure what Mazda was thinking about there. If in your opinion, the plastic yellow fluid covers look better than the polished Hayame covers, then you are entitled to think that. Big difference between that and strapping on a wing that would dwarf the back end of a Ford Falcon. :D

For what it's worth, I do like your car... even though it's blue

I'm just a beliver in the right to do what ever you like to your car 
even if that means the person wants to put a stupid bonnet scoop on a rx-8
your engine bay does look good IMO.
rice is only rice if you don't like it

...Can't see why so many people on this forum think it is their job to judge what other people do to their car..........Everyone has their own opinion on what looks good on their car......AND since they are the ones making the payment.....SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!!! IMHO

What are people expecting when they do, that everyone will see things their way and lavish praise upon them for their impeccable tastes. Get real man, no body forces anyone to post pics of thier mods, if you can't take criticism, don't make yourself available to it.

I am not referring to me....also I when I said SHUT THE HELL UP... I was saying it in a sacarstic way....maybe I should have a <sarcastic> tag. My point was that I hate to see someone post a pic of their new car, obviously extremely excited, and then the first 5 or so responses dog his choice of spoiler....That's all

All of that stuff is hysterical, the big thing around Connecticut is to go to Auto Zone or PepBoys and throw some hot plastic rims on your car. Either that or simply remove your hubcaps for the sleek black rims look. I just shake my head every time.

No tears, no offense, but if you start a "let's make fun of rice" thread and have a VB garage that borders on rice, maybe you should expect a little delicate ribbing?
