Curious, but do you feel the new ZR1 is rice? It has bare carbon all over it. Same with a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. How about a Ferrari 430 Scuderia? That Katech spoiler was actually wind-tunnel tested, it isn't just for cosmetics.
"Ricer" is an overused term. Ricers like to emulate actual performance cars by making them look like fast cars. The term shouldn't apply to actual performance cars. Carbon fiber came out first on world class cars, never on Hondas.
I actually modeled my Z06 as the "cheap" version of this car, appearance-wise:

Here are some photos I took today, showing the new Katech wing and APR carbon nose splitter. Wheels are 19/20 HRE in custom cyber gray with silver pinstripe.

On a side note how do you like the Nitto Invos?
Beautiful car/color! Spoiler and splitter look good, but I think the spoiler should've been color matched not CF. Just my 2 cents.

The driver seat looks like it could use a good cleaning and conditioning.
Love the CG with the CF. It almost matches the color and just fits the car perfectly. Are you going to get the calipers powdercoated grey now as well? The red doesnt go too well with all the gray on there now.

You are right your spoiler is not "rice". It is kind of
though. I guess if you wanted a spoiler on a car you should have bought one of the cars you mentioned above

Thank you for defining the term "Rice" for me. I will only use that on Hondas from now on

spoiler debate I would have to agree with caged 02 is more like it. There are some many nut swingers that just pile on the new thing. If you want to spoiler a car out/ buy a spoilered out car just buy one that is already ruined. The wheels look to me like the wheels on 16 yr old neighbors prelude. So props to you for adding your little touches to a new Z06. I will have to say I have seen some of your other cars in the past and this one ranks in the bottom.
