Yep, that is rice. All those mods are to make it look faster, even if it isn't

Loving the quarter window :P

Funnily enough those wheels can look good but ALWAYS need to be clean and HAVE to be no smaller then 20's and the car should be sent to the big fluffy car dump in the sky...

I call them plastic rims. They lack that nice metal look.
There's a VTII 2 doors up from me and they have imitation-alloy hubcaps made from plastic.

Those wheels remind me of them. Since when did rice have style?

And that bonnet looks retarded on the car. What a waste of a good bonnet!

Ford parts belong on Ford cars.

You can also buy clip on brake caliper covers that are a knock-off of Brembo.
(How cool to have 115mm discs and 8 piston mono-blocks)
They would go well with those fake rotors.
At least until they melted into the real calipers and you crashed......
