lambo doors on anything that isn't a lambo
altezzas excludeing the is300
aluminum wings

heres a definition for you from urbandictionary lol
(Ricer: from the latin word Ricarius meaning to suck at everything you attempt)

A person who makes unecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are (but not limited to):

- Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder
- Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747
- Lots of after-market company stickers they don't have parts from, but must be cool
- Expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself
- Bodykit to make the car appear lower, usually accented with chicken wire
- Clear tail lights and corner signals
- A "performace intake"- a tube that feeds cold air to their engine usually located in areas of excessive heat (behind or on top of the engine)
- Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols Mitsubishi Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that some Supras, Skylines, WRX's and other higher performance imports are designed to go fast, and are therfore not always considered rice. It really depends on the severity of the case.

The "ricer" attempts to make their car "performance" by adding the modifications listed above. These ricers are not confined to any one ethnic group or color, however different ethnic groups are known for certain styles.

basically anything that looks like this lol

I think this is quite riced.

1exotic 08-11-2009 12:20 AM

If it's done with taste then I don't consider it rice
cheap car that is over done = rice

example:

Shun Izaki 08-11-2009 04:34 AM

a lot of kids these days think anything is rice...

sure the biggest definition is: rice is not performance. But that doesn't mean i'm going to drive an AE86 that's stripped and looks like shit just so i can say im not rice... i rather like what i've done to my car

toyota86 08-11-2009 04:44 AM

non-oem bodykits
incorrectly sized wheels or tires
overly lowered or lifted
unnecessarily loud and visually flamboyant or anything done in bad taste
trying to make the car into something its not and not knowing better
non-value adding, performance gaining or desirability enhancing mods
if the car could be sold for more if turned back to stock
the cause of grief to other drivers and comic relief at the same time
failure to realize people are actually laughing at you when they appear to be checking out your car

Failed logic.

My definition of rice is:
  1. Adding anything that doesn't do what it inherently is supposed to do (e.g. spoilers, front air dams and body kits just for looks, where it originally is designed for aerodynamics)
  2. Adding any kind of cosmetic that makes it look like something it's not (e.g. Type R-R-R!)
  3. Performance mods that are more cosmetic than performance (e.g. unpainted CF hood)
