If the doors on your plane don't match the fuselage.*
If there is bondo anywhere on your plane.
Fuzzy dice in the cockpit.
Gunrack in the window.
Chewing tobacco stains down the side.

*Old 60U that I was learning/will be learning to fly in again soon had a mismatched cowl on her for a week or two because the original had some kind of problem. She is back to normal now.  ;)
