How much till it's ricey?
Just wondering where most CL members draw the line when it comes to how much is too much for a car...

1 ugly common sticker will make it ricey, I guess it's a UAE thing to understand.

I guess you don't smoke, or don't smoke in the car and cant appreciate the utility in rain.

Like most I don't smoke and even if I did certainly not in my Lexus. And most window visors are added to resemble a styling touch.
I have a Jeep for dirty work though.

Personally, I don't think its the number of mods done to a car, but the quality and taste of mods done. For example you can have a clean, well built car with lots of mods and not be rice, but you can have a stock car with one big sticker and it can be rice. All about the execution.

...then I suppose I'm a ricer.
Usually I'd agree, but I find OEM Toyota/Lexus visors fit exceptionally well and are contoured to match the window trim for the application. eBay visors don't cut it.

Nice touch of class, or rice , depends on who's looking, lol.^^^
But regardless, after all that factory aero testing, stuff stuck on with double sided tape doesn't help.

Amazing, I have never seen a ISx50 messed up that much.
To think he paid good money for that "customization".
