I usually do my own custom models, but I have used these guys once:
Leading evidence: 'Use these guys' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use these guys' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Also, GT Spirit uses very flimsy clear plastic for the windows which tend to warp.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Is this a thing? I'd be interested as well.
I have been looking for an AutoArt model of the first gen Carrera for a while now (no. 77851). When I do find one, they are generally really expensive. If I could find another high-quality option that would be great.
This is pretty much the only business that comes up in a search.

I'd give this guy a call. I have no personal experience with bespoke diecast.
There have been some really good customizers I have come across.
I usually do my own custom models, but I have used these guys once:

Be aware that a custom model costs alot! Anywhere from a simple paint job for $1000 to $2000 or $3000 depending on the amount of extra motor/interior/ suspension detail and such. Remember that the customizer is spending ALOT of hours puttying, sanding, priming, painting etc. And of course the extra parts that need to be made and fitted. Its alot of work, and they will charge you accordingly.
You can go here and these guys may be able to help. I myself don't do customs for other people anymore:

I can dig up the company, but I got very lucky with this one. My nephew actually found it for me. Wheels are wrong, but it already has the rollbar and race seats. A buddy is going to make decals to match my numbers. I also have de-pumpkin it.
I know a guy that builds custom models and competes in contests. He has sold some of his plastic on eBay for hundreds of dollars each. I imagine he could do this, but I'd hate to think how much it would cost. If anyone is really interested, I can ask him if he is interested.
Maisto makes a C4s and as Strangelove posted, so does GT Spirit. Both in 1:18 scale.
GT Spirit is more expensive, and has no opening parts, while the Maisto is more toy like, but does have opening parts. Also, GT Spirit uses very flimsy clear plastic for the windows which tend to warp.
Good luck.

Yes I believe it is. Gift from my girls and i have an 03 c4s arctic silver with turbo twists, though no rear wiper. Windows on model are darker as well but not complaining.
