Starting out in the import business
Hey whats up guys im looking for some friendly advice. I'm looking to start a import custom shop in town but in need a few tips and tricks of the trade to get started. i have money and the store location but i need some help finding a good source for low priced wholesale custom parts. the store will focus on honda/acura so something in that general area would be nice. and also i live in central cali so somewhere in state works best. thanks for the help
anything you can add to help me get going would be great.

RE: Starting out in the import business
Hey. Sorry I don't know of any wholesalers in your area. I just thought I'd drop some advice based on tuner shops like that that I've seen start and bomb really quickly in my area:
Don't be afraid to start small. I mean like "out-of-your-garage" small. If you try to go too big too fast, there's a good chance you'll end up without any money. I'm not saying by any means that this will happen, but I've seen it plenty of times...
I hope this doesn't come across as condescending or anything; just trying to help...
And good luck!!
