A wing on the back that looks like it was previously a seat from a high school football stadum.

Tons of stickers for parts that are not on the car.

Badges from cars not from the same manufaturer (example -Type R on a Nissan)

a redneck looking at any "jap" car can make it a ricer. its all personal taste. one thing that looks good to you might not look good to somebody else and they would then label it "rice".

generally speaking, any mod that only makes the car LOOK faster is considered rice, unless the car has the goods to back it up.

dont forget THIS RICE!! <click for rice example

removing the back seats, spare tire, etc to reduce weight, but you plop 100lbs of amps, and subs.
