Default What constitutes Rice?

What constitutes rice? My opinion: Anything done to make the car look better before a performance upgrade, like getting altezzas before getting an intake and so on.

I like the 3rd car in that picture. It looks nice and clean. Minus all the stickers going up the hood.

Absolutely. Some of what we consider rice on street vehicles is almost always functional on race cars.

big loud exhausts, large rear poilers, stickers (sponsors) etc.
