Difference between Bosozoku and Ricers

Bosozoku

Bosozoku is Japaneses style of building in Japan. But yet some people in other countries don’t understand this style. From what I heard is that people call these cars Ricers. Rice stands for
-Race
-Inspired
-Cosmetic
-Enhancement
This build is not for racing as the extra parts would cause massive drag coefficient and fuel consumption. So why do people call this Rice, what I think is that some have not seen this before and don’t know the proper word for it. This is a style of builds in Japan, in fact it’s more of a cultural thing that a simple car build. (Yes it’s a Scion XB and there is a reason.)

Ricer

This is what a Ricer is (Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements). These are the parts that would should not buy in Auto Zone or any auto part store. These parts are unnecessary to have on any car as the don’t offer any real down force. So why do people buy these parts. Well what I theorize is that these people are not real car enthusiasts, and don’t seem to understand that these parts and extra weight.

So learn the difference between these or don’t judge Bosozoku’s. It’s that simple.
