Folks lets please not turn this into a "rice throwing" thread. Either you like something or you don't.... there is no need to insult someone else's opinion by assigning names to it.

Absolutely share your opinion and justification for it, but you don't have to (potentially) insult others to make your point.

Thank you.

DRIVEN1, paint the caliber, then put on the Lexus sticker, and after that apply a good clear coat on top. It's gonna look real nice and it'll last. I want to get those Lexus sticker also, probably white because my car is white. Post some pics after you done.



Did someone just mention "rice" ? yummy...............

Wouldn't the heat from the brakes affect the clear coats life span?

everything can be considered rice.
good point...just because it's cosmetic doesn't automatically make it "rice", "boy racer", "ghetto", "the fast and the furious", etc. To me, a lot of this stuff is just personal preference and taste. IMHO, the type of things that would fall into that "rice" category are mods like undercarriage lighting, spinning rims, etc. Again, just my opinion
