Established in 2003, this premier US manufacturer of high-performance automotive exhaust systems and hood strut kits generated $1.2M in annual revenue with strong 25% SDE margins. Operating from a 13,500 sq. ft. facility in Michigan, the business has a 20-plus-year reputation for handcrafted products that enhance vehicle performance and driving experience. The company focuses primarily on exhaust systems (88% of revenue) and hood strut kits (12%).

The business handles everything from engineering and design to manufacturing, distribution, sales, and installation under one roof. The company enjoys stable financial performance with consistent revenue, 77% gross margins, and a remarkably low return rate of just 2%, reflecting superior product quality and customer satisfaction.

Revenue is diversified across multiple channels: 62% from B2C (business-to-consumer) sales (both online and in-store), 30% from dealer relationships, and 8% from B2B collaborations—a growing segment with expansion potential. The strategic location in the Detroit automotive hub, close to the SEMA garage, provides valuable industry connections and testing resources unavailable to most competitors.

A new owner has multiple growth levers to pull, including expanding B2B relationships, developing products for emerging vehicle models, increasing digital marketing spend, and potentially entering the Import Vehicle market. The self-sufficient team (including critical roles in sales/marketing, production, and inventory management) allows for a smooth transition, with the current owners available to provide comprehensive support.

Notably, the business's real estate can be purchased as part of the acquisition, allowing a buyer to wrap all assets into a 25-year SBA loan—an exceptional opportunity for financing the complete operation. This business represents a unique chance to acquire a turnkey US manufacturing business with a proven track record, established brand equity, and multiple avenues for growth.
