Is there a chance ASM Japan will be supplying more of their coveted parts to SuperAutobacs USA? Same companies should share their inventory.
Maybe the wrong people are in charge on both side of the pond and therefore they are not reading their market correctly and so stocking the wrong parts.
If they are truly one in the same company then it should not be that difficult to stockpile the USA branch, or is the inventory more of a local decision making process?
I find it shocking that these Honda Aftermarket parts (dry carbon or FRP) are more expensive than Porsche, BMW, AMG aftermarket parts.
Alot of the above is more of wishfull thinking on my part, I know there are economical business operational factors.

Also, I dont see how the wrong parts were stocked, since almost every item has been ordered that would work for the U.S. market, and that wasnt ridiculously expensive (i.e. GT Widebody Kit). (was there an item I couldnt get for you)
Stockpiling ASM is an EXPENSIVE task. Especially, when you have to support new vendors coming up around the world.
There are a lot of factors when it comes to holding inventory, and I know any of the vendors on here would say the same. Its tough to be on the selling side of this industry.

Mr. ASM sent me a congratulations email, after it was in Honda Tuning Magazine. Also how my car is the first picture you see when you Google ASM Silverstone.
I am trying to convince him to send me more parts so I can put it into more of our magazine brands.
