Yes, I was acting ricey, but only to push his ricer buttons. That does not make me a ricer, that makes me a troll. I made a ricer pay for his transgressions, I thought you guys would lulz along with me a little. Evidently I was wrong.
I still fail to see how liking the look of euro and altezza style taillights make me a ricer. Ricers use race inspired aftermarket crap to make their car look like a race car. So far the only racecars I've seen either don't have head or taillights, or have completely painted over them. To me lowering the car more than an inch or two, and camber kits are 100x more ricey. Unless you're taking right turns going 50 mph, to me they seem completely unnecessary. To me lights like those look smoother and more modern, and frankly I'm considering not getting them right now because I can't afford spending ~$300 for them. Granted a majority probably would look like crap on a Civic, but then again so would a majority of aftermarket rims.
EDIT: What other ricey thing have I talked about doing to my car? So far the lights are the only things I've heard complaints about
EDIT #2: Incomplete sentence.

Slamming a car has no function.

^ and why would one need a lower center of gravity in a civic? Its a car not a top-heavy Jeep, unless your taking a tight turn going 50 mph, you will be just fine as is.

I honestly don't think that you know anything whatsoever. I'm getting tired of reading your posts.

OK If I don't know anything, tell me what good it does.

it's an entire style of car, it's not my style but a black civic with dark tinted windows that is slammed and is clean looking , you don't get it? it's a style not everyone likes the same style, if they did no one would modify cars. there's a big difference between putting the work into a car to make it look right, and slapping a bunch of junk from autozone and walmart on it.

Just to clarify, I don't really think slamming a car is good, I was just pointing out it results in lower center of gravity. But now you are saying that a Civic would not benefit from a lower center of gravity, so...

There is, and besides the mistake I made in getting the LED washer nozzles (which I have since replaced), that is something I have not done. Why isn't altezza's a certain style then? Granted a lot of ricers have them, but slamming cars seem to be just as popular with them.
