I guess I'm a ricer then because I have 5 percent tint, and I am thinking about modding my headlights with landing strips or the ironman idea.

I figure to each their own.

When I think of ricer I think of someone that picks looks over power. Buying rims when you could buy preformance parts or fake emblems. But if you build a 600hp TT 370z in my book you can put what ever extras you want. Like rims, carbonfiber, dvd monitor and whatever you feel your can needs. But just remember its a sports car. Put up some numbers on the dyno before dropping cash on the "bling". If you do that I dont think anyone can call you a ricer.

And everyone is hating on Carbonfiber. If it looks good I say its okay. Just like I want a carbonfiber hood, side mirrors, and b-pillars but thats it. I just think it will look good on my PG nismo. But I also plan to have Z1 put a GTM Stage 4 TT system in it..... so ricer for having a few carbonfiber parts I dont think so.

People will still do it though.

These days, ricer has such a negative tone with it that I don't use it on people who pimp their sports cars out (of course, it better look good too..otherwise you are a ricer). I like to apply it to cars that are not fast that are pimped out.
