Rice or Nice? Just swapped a ls1 into my 97 firebird. It has the wings west ground effects on it and predator style hood from suncoast creations. Trying to decide if I like way the car looks now? Looking for any opinions/suggestions about improving the looks.
Would you....
Leave it as is?
98+ front end conversion?
Swap to 93-97 ta front bumper?
swap to ta rear bumper?
swap to ta spoiler?
take off ground effects completely?
any criticisms or suggestions appreciated.

The term "rice" is being thrown around way to much. Just because something has gfx does not make it rice....I like the way the car looks now (maybe do something with the spoiler on the hatch)....but the term rice needs to be done away with lol

Overall, I think the car looks good. I'd never call it "rice." I agree with the earlier poster who said that the term gets thrown around too much. On this board, anything outside the box of "T/A hatch, CETA, C5 Z wheels/TT2's" seems to be called rice. I like that your car is unique.
That said, I would change the spoiler. It's a little over-the-top for my taste. In the end, man, it's your car. Don't change it just because some a**holes on the internet told you to (including me).
