Heh, would he would fall under his own definition? I don't necesarilly agree that adding a nice lip, or a nice body kit, or even swapping to JDM taillights would qualify as rice (it seems a little extreme to call it that) as long as it's nicely done and not tacky, and definitely not overdone. I think that personalization is one thing... and "tacky rice rocket" which tries to look cool with way overdone body mods, etc... is another.
And, window visors = rice? Now I think that's just getting a little silly. :P They're functional, aren't they? I like how they eliminate wind noise for one.
Now, maybe if they had window visors + 3 high wings on the rear end sitting on 20" heavy-@$$ chrome wheels with performance stickers all over the vehicle... All tackily done and they've never REALLY tuned their suspension or done any nice engine work... then yeah.. I would think that would fall under the term "rice"...
But if that's how you truly see the definition of rice, I guess we're all rice boys!
Oh well...

This setup looks and sounds great. It's exactly what I want when I eventually start working on my IHE path. $400 for an axleback isn't bad. Where I come from (Subarus), an STI Genome axleback can set you back about $800-$850, and that's stock 2.25" piping. Getting a full catback system for about that much or less on the Fit seems pretty reasonable to me, but I guess it's all relative. That titanium J's Racing setup will take a little more to convince me, though.
