If this is true I wonder if the other rumor is true that it will now be illegal to sell aftermarket HID kits. I remember a post about that a few weeks back now about it. I sure hope not. I better jump on a HID kit soon...

 

Yeah, it was posted a few times in the General Discussion forum, a few months back.

 

repost y0!!

 

crazy yO !

 

Should have been $6,500,000...

 

That a good news. I hate APC.

 

Imagine if APC went out of business.

Man Nopi would go bankrupt.

Seriously dude I worked the head office for a while and I would say that 70% of sales was for altzza style lights and projects. 20% was for body kits and the last 10% was broken down like this: 8% was for break pads, sleeve style coilovers, intakes and exhausts (which was not very often). The rest was acutally go fast parts (real coilovers or @ least good ones like GC or Skunk2), turbo's cams etc.

Their internet based sales make all their money anyway. And i'd still say its 65% altezza's.

Although TYC by genrea corp is actually starting to put a dent in APC's sales.

 

The person, or team that created the Altezza style tail kit has got to be extremely rich. The fine they received is probably a very minor set back, as every car I see on the road seems to have these lights, modified or not. Pretty amazing that it caught on so quick.

True when we worked there that is like all we sold. Nopi basically buys 90% of their products from APC.

Was it all the lamps?
