What body kit is this?

I am still looking for a car and I found this car for $2000.
I looks like it has a widebody kit on it. I don't think it is a Mariah mode 1 though, the fenders are too wide. Its either that or the picture is decieving.

Sorry, I don't have another one. I found the car on Autotrader.ca just today. I'm calling the guy tonight about seeing it. Its about a 2-3 hour drive to see it for me, so I would have to do it on the weekend. I will get pics as soon as possible.

Like I said, the guy is asking for $2000 for it. THe only real problem is where it is located. Its about 5 hours away from me. Anyway, It has about $2000 under the hood too. It has a weber carb, header, K&N filter and other parts. I'm guessing 140-150 hp to turn those tires that look to be about 7" wide.
