Get an APR full carbon fiber wing and be the first to demonstrate this form of rice on a first gen to us all so we can see what it looks like. LOL.

The 3-piece wraparounds ... (I were a factory option at on point, but I'm not sure about that) ... but I'd like to get one of those someday.

I might get crucified for this, but I think the factory spoiler off a new Celica might suit the car...

the new celica only looks good without that wing on it, so maybe we can set up sort of trade with the with celica drivers..

picture this in solid black, well thats my future spoiler. I think it might be from a Supra, but meh, spoilers will never help me enough to be essential so i'll go one with looks.

the whole body kit is pretty nice

Those look familiar... Kinda like mine!

Well, like my hon-duh's rims.... by the way, what are they worth in a 15" version (like mine)

They're American Racing 5 spoke aluminum mags... 15", I have no idea on the width or offset, or anything like that...

Its only rice if it doesn't serve any purpose but the wing on that one does. Its a pretty nice car. It has a N/A 13b sideported(I don't know what they call that in the states. basically just the intake and exhaust ports opened up) with the weber side draft.
