Ive been reading through a lot of the posts here on UB and I keep coming across the word "riced" what the hell does it mean?

does it mean modified as in the UK, big body kit, big exhaust, big furry dice and bigger ego sat behind the wheel of the Fiat???:

Riced means, undercarriage lights, big spoilers, body kits, stickers, etc. At one time, you would see this stuff on hondas, toyota's etc. Hence the term "riced"

while usually referred to as overdone, tacky japanese cars, as stated above, it can also refer to wannabe cars, such as a dodge stratus i see at school which has a huge, off-color body kit and ridiculous wing on it. i call it "american rice."

other than that i think dinan pretty much covered it.

I got the message, here in the uk we call them modders or boy racers as well as a few other choice names that are unprintable, brainless fuckwits that think they can outpace everything on the road.
