HELP!!! MY EYES!!! I CAN'T SEE!!!

I looked at the shift knob first...and it blinded me.

Hehe...Rice...

I have to admit, the blue is cool...I suppose...if you have a Civic or something.

I own a TL. I am 34. I have children. It's an adult car, but not an old man's car (drove the ES300, there is a senior car).

(Okay, a tiny tiny part of me thought about how cool a blue shift knob would be...but I shoved it out of my heard rather quickly).

what do u guys think about these items?
I'll install that right after the windshield washer led's, interior neon light show, under car neon, hydralics, 8 inch round exhaust pipe and 4ft wing I have on order. I already have the wheels sticking out of the fenders 8 inches and lowered so the tires rub against the fenders, so this will really give my car that final rice look I was looking for.

Oh yeah, the 20,000 watt subwoofer is laying on the back seat and one is in the trunk, can't forget that!


Edit, now does this say rice or what?
My aplogies to anybody who actually likes that knob, sorry if I was being a knob. :devil:

The fire starts from all the cheap useless lights that have been improperly installed.:tflamer:

You Might Be A Ricer, If...
...you find yourself using the excuse 'yo, but you gots twice as many cylindas, du' after EVERY race

... you drive a 4 door 'type R'

... your gumby pants make it hard to shift

... more than 20 of your mods involve sheilding whats actually underneath

... you have stickers that even most asians don't get

... you have stickers for parts you dont have

... you refer to 50hp as the 'big shot'

... your car has so much camber it can drive on its side

... when you drive by, WWII veterans run for shelter

... your exhaust tip diameter is 4 times the inner muffler diameter

... you have 'power by' anything anywhere on a car made by the engine manufacturer

... birds make nests on your spoiler because its taller than the trees

... you sell crack for the image...not the money

... you have 'N/T' polished on the side of car and you dont know what bracket racing is

... you will only race if the other guy removes four sparkplugs

... you can't race uphills

... you have "All Motor emblazoned on your rear hatch right next to your 15.50 dial in

... you brag to have nitrous and have a 14.50 dial in

... your exhaust system for your 1.8L is bigger than most Pro-stock cars

... you spent more money on stickers and stripes than your parents paid for your car

... you go to a performance shop and immediately start rummaging through the decal bin

... your tach is bigger than your head

... you have a shiftlight and your car is an automatic

... you refuse to race it at races because it's a show car and at car shows you refuse to show it because it's a race car

... your only mods are cut factory springs and a chrome exhaust tip

... at Autocross events you don't participate because you have a drag race setup and at drag events you brag about kicking *** on the autocross.

... you have more lights on the front of your car than the USS Voyager

... you brag about a turbo kit that never seems to get installed.

... your exhaust sounds like a dying Moose

... your bright green $300 air filter is bigger than your engine.

What if I put the "superbrightleds.com" sticker, that came with my blue LEDs for the Dome and Doors, in the back window?

Does that make it a ricer?
