i don't think its rice
if you like the lip, get the lip

the 02-04 type-s' comes originally in chrome headlights
the type-r are black/bronze
90% of the type-s owners have them in black/bronze but they're not type-r's

just as long as you don't put a type-r or type-s badge on your car, it'll be fine

You can bet that most OEM isn't rice unless it defines the trim level. (STi wing on WRX or Type R wing on LS, etc)

Who the heck cares what other people think about your car? Are you that insecure?

Seriously, if you like it, put it on your car. What fun is buying a car to modify to other peoples' liking? Its your car! If you think spinners would look cool on your car, then put spinners on your car. If it was up to Honda-Tech, all the cars would look exactly the same...which is lame.

Think of the great cars our there. The white RSX with the gold plated ITB's. I doubt he asked Honda-Tech if it would be cool for him to do it. He just did, and now his has probably one of the most well known DC5's on the site.

exactly the main point ... everyone has their own taste and you shouldnt have to worry if anyone things your ricey or jdm do as you please and dont second guess your own judgment ... plus there will always be people who share your taste and like what you do and there is also others who will not agree with you ... its just how the world is ... just do what you think you would do ...

not at all, I wish america wasnt the only gay country in the world to not have the DC5 R so my plan is to get the whole type r lip kit, I have the wing and front lip, I know I dont have a type r but im going to try my best to look like it cause ITRs are awesome , I dont think I would ever put the "Type R" badge on it but if I did I would make damn sure that my car was almost identical to a real R, when I hear rice I think of big bleacher bench wings, and a bunch of random mods that dont go together at all, i dont think of a type r wing on an LS, or a Type S lip spoiler on a base, to think thats rice is kind of closed minded to me

Like a dark blue old model Dodge Neon with a HUUUUUGGEEE black hood scoop, with somewhere close to Pheonix Yellow Lip, unpainted side skirts and green rear lip with a super huge mesh and 999999" diameter pipe scrapin' the ground on black steelies on one side and unpainted steelies (with rust I might add) on the other... LOL

damn I wish I had a Kodak camera then...
