ASM products
Does anyone here own/use any of the ASM products?? --> they seem to specialize in S2000 parts and custom model recaro seats for limited applications...
I have seen alot of their cars in Japanese magazines, and their products are really elite in japan and very high priced. I was just wondering if anyone has experience with this company.

Re: ASM products (8k-red-DC2)
ASM is owned by Autobacs in Japan. They are also the biggest Recaro dealer. They specialized in detailing, custom interior and S2000 but the parts they made are ridiculously expensive so basically they just tell you "don't buy" cuz for the amount of money to build a S2000 with full ASM parts, it will cost you 2 more brand new S2000

Yeah, I saw their cars in a bunch of my JDM magazines, and also they had a bunch of ads in the Autobacs promo and other stuff from the Tokyo Auto Salon.
Im gonna go by their shop when im over there in 4 weeks.
Has anyone seen their floormats?? They are incredible.
I dont think the gauge clusters are 5k, but nevertheless the stuff is expensive -- even by Japanese standards. Those clusters were made in a joint venture with Mugen too, they must be TOP NOTCH!!
I heard their catch cans are incredible, even the street spec non-race one is supposed to be as clean as the Carbing ones! Im gonna check these out in person for sure.
Loving this style...looks even more amazing up close in this ad I have!!! And I think there is a choice of red or black stitching on the outer edge, and the badge on it is brass or something, not fabric!

insurance does not cover aftermarket
you would need a custom policy which values the mods done to the car...
