How can you think it's rice? Your car is a ZR1. Now, if you were to put that thing on something like an '85 Corvette, THEN it would be rice.

Rice is a Type R sticker with a Spyder badge on a hard top Mitsubishi Eclipse.

Rice is not ZR1 identification on a real ZR1.

Looks cool. No rice added. That's not even a neon light is it?

Let's just put it this way...............a ricer wouldn't be caught dead in a ZR-1.........they would on the other hand, be caught dead under one:) Hehe atleast if I was drivin it. :D 2 cool 4 Rice-a-Roni :cheers: :yesnod:

Looks GREAT! :yesnod:

Only thing is, it would only be noticeable/legible while your car is standing still at night! Now, how many times will you be sitting still (except at a car show or cruise in) with your driving lights on?

I'm not trying to burst your bubble, but I would try do install something more functional in the front plate area, like a RamAir Induction kit (not just the face plate, but the whole shebang). :smash:

I need to get a daylight photo up. But since it has been raining everyday here for the last week I have not had the chance. The letters look black during the day. Since there is no light on during the day.

With all of the rain we see down here in Florida I don't really want to take the chance of sucking up some water into the LT5. And on the other side the Ram Air doesn't do much when the car "is" sitting still. And for $400, I'll pass. The extra 5 maybe 10 hp just isn't worth the cost to me.

Looks good, I wonder what the regular "Corvette" lettering would look like all lit up.
