I said a Maybach is nice. I did not say your G35 was. I said your G35 is ricer. It has crooked wheels, gay body kit, and curtains that dont belong on it. Its ricer just admit it.

You actually worked your way into a corner on this one, you got beaten by someone that should have been easy to defeat dude... Debate might not be for you.

Um better than you.
[b[Also rice is anything that has[/b] decals, emblems that it doesnt belong on (IE mustang decals on a civic), fart cans, dumb curtains, crooked tires, ugly body kits, and no go fast parts. Doesnt matter if its an SUV, Truck, car, etc. If its got any of the above its a piece of shit rice machine.

ok so you said it yourself. some people do not like it and that is there opinion. so why try and argue about every negative opinion in here.

That's the thing, I'm not arguing with their opinion. If you look back at some of the previous posts there have been several that stated they don't like it, and I didn't respond to those people.

The ones I responded to are the ones that say it's stupid AFTER I tell them it's a certain style and they can't get it through their head. If they would understand that and respect it and still say they don't like it, I have no problem with that at all. It's the pure matter that they don't realize it's a certain type of style, but then it leads to other things.

Clearly you dont understand offsets... Enough said, need proof, look at what you have done to your car.

I said it isnt MUCH of a stagger... Dumbass. Reading comprehension >>>>>>>>>> you.

Clearly you didnt have the money to do it right, otherwise you would have done it right the first time... And I am willing to bet that it will still look like shit when you are done.

Actually, money wasn't an issue, I already proved you wrong on that. The amount of work was unforeseeable.

Although you you stated it isn't MUCH of a stagger, you imply or make it seem that it wouldn't really be considered staggered since it's not that much. It either is or it isn't, I know it's not all that much more, I know that between 225 and 235mm there is a 10mm difference, but it's STILL considered staggered, no matter how much or how little.

Now prop up your ego against his attack by letting us all know how much money you spent on it last week. Maybe someone will respect you more seeing that dollar figure in your post.

You really like to take things and make an argument and attack out of it don't you? He made a comment saying I probably was too cheap or didn't have the money so I come back and prove that how is it cheaping out by spending the money I did. Did you not see the various things I listed. How does that involve my ego? I wish it didn't cost so much, because I'd be able to do other things with my car or heck, even save the money, put it in the bank. I'm not bragging in any way, but you seem to think that for some reason. Now I see who really is a troll.

If money wasnt an issue, then why not get the fenders rolled and pulled to begin with, so you could get the correct tires the first time? No one is doubting that you wasted a lot of money on this car to screw it up, but the fact remains that if you wanted to do something right, you should have saved up and done it right from the beggining. I have been telling you that for weeks now, and your only response is "I spent a lot of money and I am not done". We all get that, should have saved up and done it right. I will say it again as I am sure you still dont get it: Should have saved up and done it right.

I never said it wasnt staggered, just that 10mm isnt much of a difference, and wouldnt gain you anything. Regaurdless, you have added rice to it because you are stretching and staggering on a family sedan that is not performance oriented. Stretching is not done for aesthetics, it is highly frowned upon by performance enthusiasts because of its dangers, and people that do it just for a look are pretty **** oblivious as to what or why stretching is really done. Would have looked 100 times better with proper wheel/tire combo and with proper suspension work. More often than not, subtle is better...

No, you said anything with curtains is rice...I showed you the Maybach with curtains, now you're saying it's not rice. So which is it?

Its rice.

You call it style. We call it brain defect.

You remind me of a guy named Howard Firstler. Before web-based forums like this one ever came about, there was Usenet. Howard started posting on rec.audio.opinion - a forum filled with audio folks who've forgotten more about the subject than Howard could remember - and proceeded to tell us all how little we knew. Similarly, I'm willing to bet that people like me, who live and breathe cars, were familiar with VIP before you ever heard of it. You're not a car guy, yet it doesn't occur to you that folks who are very interested in automobiles - some of whom posted in this thread - may be exposed to a lot more information than you. It's as if you myopically use yourself a gauge without realizing that it's based on a very limited exposure to the subject. I probably don't have to say that everything you post points to this.

Keep lashing out, you only prove Im right about your insecurity with every reply. Why do you care if people hate your car, redneck or not?

Why does one have to realize its a certain style to judge whether its visually appealing to them or not? Why would somebody respect throwing the wrong parts at the wrong vehicle?

Rice is a style too, doesn't mean I respect it or enjoy looking at rice rides.

Meh...your opinion that subtle is better.....

As I said, it was unforeseen how much work was going to be put into the car. I also drive my car daily and sometime you can't just do everything at once. For example, I'm still waiting to put my front coilovers on to match the rears, but I can't because the clicker for the damper was damaged. I'm in contact with the company, but it takes several days to get to me, plus we tried different solutions, and finally the last one worked, or was supposed to. The new damper they sent is too short so now I have to wait another week to get the right one.

I guess you don't understand what custom work means. When you get an aftermarket body kit, fitment is never 100%, unless you buy authentic, which most people, especially in the G community do not do because authentic kits usually cost 2-3k. That requires modifying and it depends on who does it, but no matter who does it still needs work, it's a known fact.

Can you tell me how I'm convincing people their opinions are wrong? Please quote me on that. Because I only comment back when someone says it's stupid or something AND doesn't realize it's supposed to be that way...a style. I didn't realize how stupid people were till this thread.

VIP style has been out for quite some time, not everyone is around when something is releasing. You try to comment on my automotive knowledge yet you are only basing it on my wheels. Funny.

I like matched pairs but I don't like Styrofoam.

Grab a toothbrush and some bleach water and clean the seam where the toilet meets the floor.

Much more hope than you. You still havent learned yet that nobody really cares about your car. We just like seeing you freak out and writing page long paragraphs on how your way is right.
