I dont have any good pics, because I dont have a digital camera (and if I did, I wouldnt have been able to use it at the time), but on my way home from work today, I saw a black Honda Civic with an indiglo Honda badge on the back, about 12 inches to the left of that, an Acura badge (actually spelled out), and a HUGE Honda sticker in the rear window (which obviously gave him the extra 15hp he needed). To my surprise, there was no spoiler on the back. He did have the requisite 15 bright yellow stickers around the front wheel well, but I didnt have the time to check to see that they were all spelled correctly.

Well if all those trophies in front of that one car are really for that car,,, then my car should be winning a crap load of trophies realllll sooon. I don't think that all the cars posted on here were rice,, just because a car has wheels and a spoiler doesn't mean it's rice. I guess when I'm done with my car (red/yellow color scheme;bodykit;small spoiler) everyone on here will call it rice. Though t-red and yellow go together very good. That neon with the viper symbol on it is a disgrace to dodge....

you guys are nuts......so did the definition of rice change again already!?  a guy paints his car yellow, so that is rice? the mustang, the del sol, thats about it. every other car in this post are all very tastefully done, and you guys call them rice simply because they are yellow or they are an import.....whats the deal....especially EVERY car on this page, i like every one of them! all very clean and cery nicely done.....i thought that was what the purpose of showing your car off at a show.....in case you have never done that before, let me give you a hint, the CLEANEST car wins, not the best looking in your opinion......how can you blame a guy cause he bought a honda....he can do 3 times more mods than we can for the same price.....just because you dont like hondas doesnt make it rice....

Damn those cars are sweet...I liked the powder blue one.
Some of those werent really "Riced Out To the Max" I thought they wee tastefully done. Lose the spoilers (personal opinion) and they would be perfect. That first pic, a little overboard on the graphics, Thats Rice!

Pete D. Those are not rice by all means. They are pretty nice cars if you ask me. Some of you really need to learn what RICE means.

Ahhh, what every true performance enthusiast likes to see...yellow go-fast gauges...big wings to, as someone said, keep that lively rear end pinned down on the ground at breakneck speeds...freaking BMW badges on a Del Sol?...hippopotamus nostrils on an Integra...and last but not least, that most speed-oriented item, a ten-inch-tall slushbox handle jutting proudly into the automotive heavens... otherwise...rice is good to eat. Hondas are decent little cars, if a little tinny. They're built in Kentucky or someplace, at least all of them that we'll ever see on this side of the ocean. Out here, they're getting crowded out by behemoth Escalades and Navigators wearing that most puzzling of styles, the 22" chrome dinner plate, with subs bigger than my apartment making the back end sag. And I may not be FoMoCo's biggest fan despite my Contour ownership, but if I ever see the owner of that first Mustang, he and I will be having one of those "this is how it is" conversations. Sorry for the long and useless rant...  christopher

Everybody has their own opinions on their cars. People may call my car a ricer because I have a carbon fiber spoiler and graphics, but does that make a Mondeo touring car a ricer. And as far as the big wheels go, I have 20" wheels on my explorer and I think it looks great. I admit there are some JC WHitney special hoopties out there, but no matter what the car, the owners are proud of them and that is all that matters. But that is just my opinion.
