You call clear taillights and rice mufflers imaginative and creative?  I
call it duplicating exactly what has been done a million times before to fit
in with the 'cool' import crowd.  Putting bmw round headlights in a mk2,
that's creative.  Mercedes taillights, that's imaginative and creative,
furthermore, those mods are 'tasteful', and look good.

I know I'm extremely opiniated and often way out of line.  However, I know
that most roc enthusiasts would gag at a roc sporting the latest 'rice'
mods.  A lot of the time, I feel I'm just saying out loud what a lot of
people are thinking. I don't know, I guess I'm a prick that way.

no, of course its not a cult, and of course nothing is set in stone.  But
come on, there are tasteful mods and there are not so tasteful ones.  There
are some shady ones people disagree on alot, like body kits and rim styles.
That's not what we're on about here.  We're talking about mods that came
directly from the import scene.  Of course it's nobody's business what he
wants to do to his car.  Is there anything wrong with pointing out that
generally, big metal wings and other 'import' mods aren't tasteful on a fine
German car?

I just think if he's into the honda style, maybe he should own one.  I have
lots of buddies with riced out hondas, and alot of them look decent.  The
mods look tasteful because they 'belong'.

Geez, there's just no middle ground, huh?  I do apologize for being so
strongly opiniated, but really it's just that.  My opinion.  If you disagree
and think the opposite, speak up!  Nothing is stopping anybody else from
being opininiated, and in my mind, that's part of what a mailing list is all
about.  It's all relevant conversation, opinion or not.

My apologies again for this huge rant, I guess this stuff gets to me.
