Ok, this is what I saw when driving home yesterday.
Personally, I don't consider a Daewoo Lanos with an oversized spoiler a 'NICEONE'. :P (And sorry about the poor quality of the pic - my windscreen was a little dirty at the time.)
Has anyone else seen/have pictures of similarly bad choices of cars that have been done up?

I've snapped a few pics with my phone of some Perth rice I've seen around lately.
A good one a few months back was like an early nineties magna with HKS and Ralliart stickers on it (shudder).
There was some real rice in the city the other day, an Accord with drift wing, gold wheels (nothing against gold wheels personally hehe), and purple vinyls all down the side. Yuk yuk yuk.
And as Stephen pointed out, we have some good examples in the WA forums.

Whats wrong with the Echo?
The sticker on the engine cover is a bit much, but other than that its lowered on decent wheels with an exhaust. Or is it against the law to modify your car if its not a high-end luxury car?

Luke, thanks... But thats a stock Echo front bumper! Infact the only mods are suspension, wheels and exhaust - hardly 'rice' IMO (unless you take on the Honda kids JDM y0! version of rice where *any* mod visible from more than 2m away is considered rice)
But i will admit that the Echo sedan is not exactly a pretty car to begin with!
Perry, come here you Toyota driving, closet Hyundai-fan. You need another slapping.
At least these are aftermarket additions. I saw this factory standard Kia at a dealership as I was passing by with a WRX lookalike kit on it (have ya seen it before?) with a huge spoiler and skirts, it even has a WRX style intercooler bonnet scoop (what intercooler???)
