Default Model Cars - XY GS in Particular

I was looking to get hold of a model of my car, in 1:18 scale. It's an original XY GS.

It seems all the models made by Bainte, Autoart, etc.. are of the Phase 3. I have seen a couple of taxi models, and also some custom ones. I haven't come across a GS model before.

I think you may be able to buy kits for these and do them up yourself, but I'm not very handy in that regard.

Does anyone know if there is a company out there, or even a hobbyist, that will build you a model to spec, based on photos of your car.

The body of a model GS would be the same as a GTHO, but with different trim, stripes, etc...

Alternatively, if anyone here has a model GS in Nugget Gold that they want to part with, I would be interested in purchasing it.

You can buy a GT model and customize it. There are a couple of shops on eBay that do similar, but usually fit the cars up with superchargers and massive wheels. You could probably search for 1:18th model parts as well.
