Hey rollin hard 8s, how about some pics or a link to the C1 parts? I've not seen or heard anything about these. Are they plastic or fiberglas? Some more info would be appreciated. Thx

 

I was actually interested in this kit and than I seen this thread. I think it looks really agressive but not ricey. Now I have grown to hate Civics or actually the people that drive civics because of all the ricey things they do to them but this kit doesn't seem that bad to me. The only problem I think is that it looks good in red but I don't know about yellow.

 

i find a new velsidebody kit.

very, very, very nice

 

*stifles raucous laughter*

 

Is that a snow plow?

And that hood looks very feminine if you know how to look at it :D

 

Dude, that is too funny. The first words that came to mind when I saw the picture were: 'labia majora'. :p lol!

 

wow, looks like a$$. veilside is just PUMPING out the great kits. Ugh.

I'd shoot myself if I was forced to have this on my car.

 

Thank God. I was afraid for a minute I was the only one. At least it's debadged. I would hate to think people would recognize it as a Mazda.

 

Come on folks, different strokes for different folks. He likes it, let's try to respect that.

 

Kinda reminds me of shamu or a dolphin. Very cute.

 

this is not my type of kit

I love veilside and I thought they would make something nicer than this

 

Its a Menzo Matzudarri..ehmmm, meant Enzo Ferrari...i

 

I also love how the kit has been posted before, yet most of the same peeps still feel the need to say the same thing about it.

Aint my cup of tea, but I dont think it's bad. Just not my style.

Point taken...

 

I kinda like the hood and the mirrors, but the nose has gotta go....

 

Pure rice.

 

ugly..

 

I don't think it is that bad. But Rice? Comeon that term is used way to much. Rice would be more along the lines of that kit being made out of Home depot parts or wood, lol. Just because a kit may be gaudy doesn't constitute rice. JMO

 

My G-rated impression is that it looks like a Toon car from "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?"

 

I thought Veilside stopped making this type of body kit. I guess they've been watching too much **** and Furious :D


This one is a little bit more subtle:

It's funny how the word "rice" when it comes to car stuff is used in a similar manner as the word "cheese" in Madden. Madden players call someone a cheeser whenever that person does something well, cheesy, while playing the game.

You guys apply the word "rice" in a similar manner. I had never heard the word rice used in this manner until I found these boards.

Oddly enough, both words are a food. And more than likely, both words are used way too often :p

 

I know many who would disagree with you there. Some people think any bodykit is "rice". Other people believe all JP cars are "rice rockets". While others believe tuning a civic or corolla constitutes "rice". I think those flashy bodykits are kinda ricey but thats JMO .
