There is still money to be made. It's just that people want quality parts. Not cheap APC lights, or body kits that make the car look like a transformer. I think people are more interested in peformance, not cheap looks. So turbo kits, ecu reflashes, headers with dyno results, etc.. are still being sold everyday.

I was into all that stuff too back in 2000-2002, and I laugh at myself now. I saw a lot of people waste a lof of money to impress judges that had different tastes than they did, all for a plastic trophy.
