if i were to get a 98 civic ex coupe and put a lip around it. would people still count that as a ricer?

 

It's your car, do what you want.

 

Some will. Some won't.

It could depend on the lip too.

But according to your sig, cars aren't ricers, people are. I can't agree that cars can't be rice.

 

If the lip are made of card board. Then YES.

 

well what im saying in the sig is that the people are the ones who dont mod the engine

cause in a 2-3 yea plan im hopefully going to have everything done

 

what kind of lip are we talking about...most likely not ricer in my eyes.

but what the white car has

 

its not bad it looks pretty alright

 

i like the stock type r lips, best way to go, hehehe just my .02, really up to you, its your car!!!

 

Next time link to just the image, not a thread with a million pics where it might take some people forever to load.



By the way, that's a stock replica lip for a '99-'00 Civic. Most people are okay with replica lips, but others think they're ricey because they're fake. If you put it on a different year, it's definitely ricey imo.

If you have a '99-'00 Civic and you put a real stock lip on it, then I wouldn't call it rice. Plus it'd look a whole lot better too.

 

hehe sorry for the pictures of it, but i heard that the honda symbol on the grill is welded or soemthing on there so does that mean to have it off i need to get a new grill?

 

as long as it looks clean its fine.but again there are people who think just about everything is ricer.

 

i saw a ef with the hood held down with ropes!thats ricer,lips are ok.

 

ahh because i was being a retard and mistaked lips for body kits

 

cant beleive i never found out they were lips lol

 

lol body kits are hella gay and ricer though.thats a big no no especially for civic.

 

If you remove the Honda H emblem from your front grille you will have a raised black section there still. It will look bad imo. In fact, it does look bad. I've seen people do that before and it looks cheap, like something broke off of the car.

It's more like the emblem is stuck on with a type of locking washer type deal. When people remove them they usually break the prongs off the back of the emblem off, which means it has to be glued back on if you want it back.

There are grilles out there without the emblem, but for the '96-'98 front the only good choice is the '97-'98 Civic Type R grille, which is black mesh. For '99-'00 Civics there is the USDM Si grille or the '99-'00 CTR grille, which is the same.

 

doesnt look to bad to me.
but its your car. do what you want.

 

so about how much would a lip cost around the car?

 

^^well replica lips off of ebay are super cheap. go check it out.

not ALL body kits look bad.


^^Backyard Special

^^White Crow with lip

both JDM
and to me they bothlook fkn killer

 

The Backyard Special only looks good if you have a nice front-mount to fill that huge gaping hole.

 

A lip is only one piece.

For example, you have the front lip. Then you have the rear lip. Then you have sideskirts.

Replica lips can be super cheap. Real ones, depending on what you pick out, can vary in price.

Remember the year and body of the car matters.

 

holy crap, did vashtx change his name already?!

no, lips are not generally considered rice, but some people call anything rice. I personally don't mind them, but I don't have one, and don't plan on getting one.... and I've had people call my car rice because I DON'T have one.

 

vind what do you mean? i dont even think your allowed to change your name i just joined yesterday cause i got recommended by a friend

 

and so can anyone give me of a name of a common store that would sell real lips? front, back, sides, and when i say common a place that if you say the name youll know what it is
