Not to start a flame war or anything but Mastergrade widebody kit, custom fibergalss interior treatment, I Forged wheels, custom ICE, custom interior mods etc etc does not equal riced out IMHO. It equals show car and not very practical but show car and riced out have major differences.
Why is it that the veilside kit or a wild S always = Rice. I have come to realize that the term rice is or should be reserved for the people who use cheesy corner store bought mods to attempt to be mistaken for something they are not.
Companies like veilside and other equally hated mod manufaturers still make commercially viable product. They are considered high quality by most and deliver a distinct look and or function.
Ricing an S, to me, would mean installing a bunch of cheap schwag from pep boys or advanced auto parts and slapping on a big APC sticker on the windshield, not going with an expensive kit that you feel looks good and taking the car to extreme show status.
Hate the cars all you want but don't confuse someone's taste that conflicts with yours with ricer mentality.

My only questions is...Is that an AEM V2 on it? Thousands and thousands of dollars spent on it and it has a AEM intake?!
