MP5 Decals...Rice or Not?

After ording my decals from protege5online.com I got to thinking...Is placing these decals on a P5 the same theory as putting a GTR or Type-R sticker on any car? The car MP5 does not really exist, unlike the MP3.

my view of rice is this: if it is a performance enhancement on one car, and when you put it on yours it isn't, then it's rice. also, if you label your car with something that your car doesn't have, it's rice. for example: those eight foot wide aluminum wings = rice. a "type-r" sticker on your civic dx = rice. ram air front hood on a fiero = rice. hopefully you get my drift.

now, an mp5 sticker on your protege5? well, that one will have to be up to you. personally, i wouldn't.

The rice thingy is kinda getting old. It's your money you put on your car payment, it's your car so do as you please.

Umm obviously you didn't read the topic of this thread. He is asking people's opinions. All njaremka did was oblige rider's request. Don't be such a dick.
So since he's asking for opinions I will give mine as well. I would not put those on my car either. And beleive me I am a big fan of stickers as I have all that ICP **** on my car. But that's for a different reason. The whole "MP5" thing is just kinda dumb to me. There is no MP5, and its like biting off the MP3 by badging it in a similar fashion. So in my opinion and for lack of a better word I will say "rice".

sweeden- i was just giving MY OPINION also... i think if Rider likes his decals then he should keep them... if he only got them because some one else said they are cool then he should ditch them...


btw... i think ICP sucks so i wouldnt put their stickers all over my pro but you like ICP and you obviously like the stickers so you put them on your car... same situation here... just because u like it doesnt mean i have to like it. all im saying is in MY OPINION Rider shouldnt listen to any of us and he should do what he pleases.

IS THAT S-L-O-W ENOUGH FOR YOU ?

I dont particularly like decals myself. I wouldnt put them on my car. I like a clean look. I used to take all of my cars badging off "I had a Sentra and pulled off all of the rear badging off". But I rather liked the protege badging with the red 5. Thats cool. But hey you bought this stickers might as well use them. If you like them then it doesnt matter. Who knows maybe they will look cool.

Well of course you should ultimately do what you want to your car. I can guarantee ya no one ever suggested the ICP scheme to me. I did it cause I'm a Juggalo and I'm down with the wicked **** for life. That's cool if you just giving your opinion as well, it just sounded like you were saying njaremka was full of **** and doing sumthin wonrg when all he was doing was giving an asked for opinion.

So whatever, its all good. Its your damn car, do what you want to it.

MUCH CLOWN LUV!!!!!!

no one said you can't voice your opinion, just don't knock someone else while you do it. us protege guys need to stick together and give support, not criticism.
