This totally custom Rabbit in Bravox’s booth had me floored. I’ve seen quite a few modded VW’s in my days, but not many as clean and well thought out as this. This little guy started life as your basic Rabbit diesel, but has a new lease on life thanks to a built and polished 1.8L 16-valve motor from an MKII GTI and an intake manifold from an MK3 Golf 2.0L 8V. However, Bravox’s Kevin Siegel informed me the little bunny is about to get another boost via a side-draft Webber carb conversion!
To really set off the cleaned-up exterior, the vehicle’s owner also added real carbon fiber front and rear bumpers and some super-pimp carbon fiber fender flares. Oh yeah, and the Rabbit rolls on an air ride suspension and some sick BBS 2-piece wheels.
The interior is completely custom, too, with custom stitched and covered OE Recaro seats, door cards, and headliner. The dash is completely fabricated and houses a 10” monitor, gauges, tach, shift light, and a slew of Bravox speakers. Man, I love the old schools….
