Still stand by what I said. You don't have agree, and I don't expect everyone to. What ever you do to your car, just rember its your car, and its a free country. You just won't see me do that stuff. BTW, I bet that aluminum shifter cover stops some of the squeeks that come from that. If just for show,(as in sticks on) then yup, its rice (to me). As for comparing what the factories are doing, yes I think some of what the do is rice. I wasn't fond of that huge wing on the r model. There just doing what they think the puplic wants to see. AND I have seen some jap cars done that I woundn't call "rice" Same rules apply, If does make it go faster, live longer, and probaly makes it slower, its rice.
