Default 95' Honda del sol pimped like crazy

Hey guy, first post here!
First off im 18 years old. Well I just got a 95' Honda civic del sol as a present by a family member from a family member. I can no longer contact the previous owner so I'm for some help on what i got if you can see anything.

All I know is everything is like aftermarket, almost new Honda 98' CRV motor(3k miles), with 99 GSR axles, stage 3 clutch(new), some rough undercoat paint I believe.. to describe it, it's like sandpaper/ a lot of texture. Craaazy sound system with changing light colors that go with the beat of a song, and an electric air to fuel ratio dial. I'm not entirely sure but I believe it's said to have 250hp(don't know how much torque) and the entire car is below 2200lbs.
I apologize that I don't know a lot of the terminology or a lot about cars,
because I very recently got into cars. Thanks guys so much for the input!
P.S. - 2 of my good friends said it was super ricey/ricer. "A bag of rice"... Is it??

I don't like the spoiler.. I'm afraid if I take it off, their'll probably be holes in the car

I just think its really ricey the wing,red stripe,the speaker in the middle of the dash I mean if that's your style then that's your style but personally I like simple and clean upgrades

I know that undercoating is going to be a pain to get off I'd just black out the entire thing and maybe spray the door jams

The stickers are all peelable without leaving crap on the car. Consider it off already. It has a huge red honda sticker on the hood as well. So say the spoilers off, and all the stickers(maybe except for one that "no fat chicks allowed car will scrape), how ricer would it look? It doesn't sound like a civic at all.
It has some resonator that make's the car sound deep and nice.

I'm just saiyan brah that's what i'm gonna do. Like that much better.
The stage 3 clutch feels like butter. I dont know the specifics but it's very smooth and moves down very easily. Are they good for an everyday driver? Must be a pain in the *** in heavy traffic

holes in your trunk from removing the wing are the least of your worries

Daaaaaang thought the bodykit my dad had put on the '97 coupe was bad. At least it's a fresh coat of paint, always see the glass half full.

Clean pick up man, I'd definitely get rid of a few things, but other than that, you can't complain about a free del sol with a sub in the dash.
But realistically, I'm pretty sure that's the B20B4. Which is out of a older Honda CRV.

What the living hell is it? Its not pimped, its riced. Wing, ghetto interior, A SUPER COLD AIR INTAKE FOR MAXIMUM HP GAINS. No, just stop.

Buy a shell, junk this crap, and swap the motor.

Edit: LORD IT HAS BREMBO BRAKE COVERS, who did the modifying of this poor sol? Go hit them a few times with that pointless fire extinguisher.

ROFL they painted the car with truck bed liner! That's ******* special.

Get rid of all of the red **** on the outside of the car. Get rid of the spoiler. Get some stock tail lights. Do whatever you want with the interior. Rock the **** out of it. Making the outside not look like *** is going to be a lot easier than swapping the motor.
