Another ricer's dream mod
On my way to Taco Bell tonight, I was driving on PCH near Lakewood Blvd and I looked in my rear-view mirror and saw a car with "HIDs" in the distance weaving in-and-out of traffic. The car's headlights did not match any sports car or super sedan, so I paid no attention to it. As it approached, I could hear the fart-can exhaust of this traditional ricer. I could also see a trail of smoke bellowing from the sewer-pipe protuding out of its rear-bumper. A red light came up at the next intersection so I stopped. Another car was to the right of me and the ricer was behind it.
When the light turned green I accelerated slowly so I can get a glimpse of this "street-racer". As the car passed by, I suddenly underwent vertigo. There was something causing me to blank-out, but my eyes were fixated in the direction of the ricer. All of a sudden I was startled and gained my bearing when someone honked at me for drivng too slow. I waved my hand to acknowledge him and accelerated.
The headlight up ahead was red and the ricer was already stopped there. As I approached the car, I could see a blue light eminating from the wheel wells of the car. When I got closer, I noticed the lights were coming from the rim's air-valve. Low and behold, this ricer managed to install flashing blue lights on the air-valve. I put two-and-two together and figured out the premise of this mod: win races by mesmerizing the other driver. What a joke.

I gave the ones I had to our family friend's children and they simply loved it. So I bought like 60 of them for them in all sort of colors and patterns.
