the sticker is a bit too big... put it inside the trunk.
Ralliart is officer tuner for Mitsu ... i wouldn't call it rice but it's up to you man..if you think it looks cool then leave it there.

Rice is a very opinionated thing. Ask 10 people on this board and you'll get 12 opinions.

For my taste, it seems out of place. This car already screams "look at me" and doesn't need stickers to call further attention.

Also, those types of decals lead to more attention from the law as well as other people.

As others have said, bottom line--if you like it do it. Don't live and die by our opinions. I've done plenty of things that others thought was dumb, but I loved. Buying an EVO comes to mind as one of those things that some called dumb, but I love.

The Evo VI TME had Ralliart decals on it. Would you "rice" haters think that is rice? I would say not. Genuine "tuned by Ralliart" cars often times have a Ralliart or "spirit of competition" decal on them.

Ralliart across the rear windshield is not rice in my opinion.


The below pictured car has the Ralliart decal in the rear window and the new Ralliart badge on the side. I would not call this rice. I would call it bad ***. As long as you do it in a tasteful manner I think you are ok. I would remove the one on the trunk and keep the rear window on. But its your car man.

You should have put the smaller decal on the top of the rear window.

I like Ralliart. Most people think it's the trim name on the Lancer, but those in the know, know what's it about. I don't think your decal is too over the top. It's your car, so your decision. There' s enough "clean" Evos out there (at the dealership, for one).... just don't go crazy with it.

Yea, i like to keep my car free from decals except the mistusishi emblem. the sticker in the back in your window looks ok to me but im not feeling the trunk. You don't need to splat a bunch of stickers on your car to make it look good; it already looks good man.

hmm, here is something to think about...do people consider nismo rice as well?

your car is fast, its not some automatic civic with a huge wing, a system and hks stickers on it (with no hks parts of course) =P

i say keep it on *shrugs* or move it to the bottom of one of the rear windows? either way, its your car, and other ppl shouldnt tell you want to do with your car =P
