it boils down to opinions, and the most important one is yours. If you like it. then its not ricy.

I'd say that's borderline ricer... It resembles that plastic garden lining from Home Depot that people use for lips as well, not my cup of tea but whatever floats your boat...

i think if you match it to the bumper, it will look better. Rice is more of flashy, "hey! look at me! i should be a fast and furious prop car" deal. Ebay or not, i think it fits the car.

Not ricey just paint to match, and it would look fantastic. The only thing that looks cheap is the fact that it's that large, and still black. Nothin wrong with buyin cheap lips, if you use your car in the correct manner then there gonna get messed up anyway.
