Hyundai Accent Forum The Hyundai Accent Forum. Hyundai's little champ. While the Hyundai Accent and Hyundai Excel may be small, they respond very well to aftermarket modifications and is among the favorites for Hyundai tuners.

I approve.



You could even buy one of the WRC Accents from Rhys Millen Racing, unless they've sold it already.

That looks good, but it is borderline rice. I mean really, Cusco and Tomei stickers?



I guess this is relevant to this thread; here's my mate's TRA special accent:

Where's HKC? This is like crack to him... LOL It's been over 12hrs and he's not here yet??



Gotta admit, saw that first picture and thought it was a WRX. Took me a minute to realize it was a Hyundai! Amazing build. I think the wide fenders make it. Oh, please avoid the stickers if you do make it.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a poseur aka imposter aka ricer.



I like the initiative and all the work that went into it. With that kind of cash they could have contacted some pro rally guys in the United Kingdom and shipped the REAL kit over, bought the REAL Superturismo GT's, put some big-ass tires on that mofo and judge for yourself.







Then proceed to replace that nasty WRC2/3 front bumper, wing, and skirt with the ORIGINALS from 1999.





This my friends is the real deal.
