would include chrome.. chrome and well some chrome.. did i mention some chrome?

generally ricer bays are regarded as the ones with the painted engine. chrome everything.. wires all hidden.. everythings done for show

Since when is having a nicely detailed engine bay a bad thing?

Fair enough you can go a bit overboard with chrome, but even then it can still look very nice. Dahtone's engine bay comes to mind in looking incredible with a lot of polished parts.

Lol about a TV screen though.

Don't think it's a bad thing.. I think there are the 'sleeper' guys who go for the "what mods does it have officer.. it's just stock" look.. Dahtone was gonna be my example.. Looks great..

Ricer, by definition of the typical owner, requires the vehicle be fitted with:

-Pod filter, not mounted or enclosed

-Fluro green ICE 16mm ignition leads, stock coil lead

-Anodised oil filler cap

-At least 2 cable ties without the ends cut-off

-At least 1 engine component that has been sprayed with trevs "metallic" paint without cleaning or removing said component from the engine bay

-Stickers on the radiator support to advertise said Anodised filler cap

Optional accessories:

-A bottle of "NOS" fuel additive kept in the engine bay for your next top-up

-Un-fused see-through-red 4ga wire running from the battery through a hole cut in the firewall with a butter-knife

LOL, but even N/A's need their vacuum pressure monitoring right?

BTW I think you're lying and have never seen that. ;)

Pics or not true.

not a ricer, but thats the only type of engine bay i can think of that looks daaamn clean

Not a big fan of 'dubber' engine bays. I mean they look good but it's all smoke and mirrors with the wires and everything tucked out of view. Actually working on the car and troubleshooting would be a bitch and so for me it's the ultimate 'show' look. Real cars otoh are made to be USED.

Clean and tidy engine bays isn't RICE.

To me, R.I.C.E. stands for Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements..

So things like, pod filters, big gay atmo bov's, coil covers with stupid logos/designs, painting everything up when it's all stock componentry etc.

I think R.I.C.E. is more generally found on the outside of a vehicle.. bigass wings, shopping lists, 6" cannons on 2" pipes, neons, graphics etc.

rice engine bay = you pop the bonnet and every single thing screams "look at me!!!" whether it is a performance mod or something normal made to look like it is a performance mod, such as an anodised oil filler cap. basically when standard items have been replaced with something brightly coloured for no apparent reason
