    was a luxe if i remember rightly. got no pictures unfortunately but was built to a high standard. the lad built it had a brother who built a very similar looking one but hyundai red with those wheels on it now from the other car, originally was running a set of dare v2's. I drove it to pvs a few years back and it never missed a beat, only things different to that pic above was with different reg plates and minus the gsi badge. it is running a proper conversion kit which was expensive when it was built. Ill try finding out more info.
    if your cousin was to ever sell let me know id be interested in it.

    will
