be honest, is this rice stuff? **think again-updated pics**
let me know
HKS carbon fiber TI exhaust with 3" downpipe, maybe on a evo 8...
looks like this
edit: th eone in the pic is a subaru of course, but i would like to have it on a evo
EDIT!!!
i must agree with most of you guys, the hks carbon ti exhaust looks kinda ricey.
look at this WRX, look: rice
but i could keep that idea, so i searched for evo 8 with the exhast, and i found them!!!, and IMO in the evo 8 looks fine and totally cool, but hey thats me, imo doesnt look rice in the 8
2004 WRX
2003 EVO8

that's still not enough. If you simply want it for sound effect then yes, it's rice. If you want it for functionality, then no

Thats not a Evo thats a STi you can tell by the tail lights, or WRX. But why the hell would you want a carbon fiber exhaust?

Well I had two cars so far and on both of them, the first thing was to change the muffler to have a better sound... I don't think it is rice because to have a better sounding car (still into the limits dictated by the law) is not that terrible  a 6 way muffler is rice because useless, but something like that one is cool in my book! and if it adds a couple of HP, even better.

i dont really have a problem with it......on the STi or evo. on a civic, yes its rice but one one of those cars no. even though the sound is associated with rice, i still think its fine.

Definately not rice if it's on an Evo 8...I used to have the exact catback on my Subaru and it sounded soooo good. Not ricey at all.

slightly off topic but someone put a 'rice cop' ticket on my mate's black Integra Type R the other day because of the rear spolier. The car is stock for f**ks sake!!
