This project Hyundai Genesis Coupe was built by RIDES Magazine with Lux Motorwerks. A custom body kit was first made by Sarona Designs in NY. They made a custom front lip, side skirts, fenders, grille, and rear lip. The vehicle returned to Lux Motorwerks where the kit was molded into the body. Now it was time for a new paint job. Something that Hyundai didn't offer. ORANGE!. We went with a Porsche GT3 RS orange paint job, and a matte black roof. The plastic from the front bumper was removed, and mesh inserts were inserted on each side and the middle was left open to expose the Spearco Intercooler, which was painted black. Front and rear taillights were smoked as well.
The wheels, 20x8.5 and 20x9.5 in the rear Vossen Forged were painted matte black to match the roof and the bolts were painted GT3 RS orange to match the exterior. The vehicle's wheels are wrapped in General Exclaim UXP tires. Stoptech brakes were installed in the front and rear and the vehicle was lowered on Apexi custom 1-off made suspension
The interior was overhauled with the front seats being removed and 2 Cobra Misano Black Leather seats installed. The rear seat was then reupholstered in matching black leather. The door panels, headliner and dash received suede and matching paint. The interior has all memphis car audio upgrades fiberglassed into the panels, wrapped with black suede and highlighted with orange stitching. With a custom enclosure in the rear hatch, with 2 12" Memphis Subwoofers
For performance, we did a Turbonetics upgraded Turbos, K&N intake, custom quad titanium tips, that were smoked black on the outside Greddy Exhaust.
