SEMA-APPEX Automotive show

[tkerr45]

I am going to be in Las Vegas for SEMA aftermarket industry show. I was wondering if anyone has been to this show and what are the "must see`s" there. Thanks in advance.

I guess it depends on why you`re going and what you`re into. There isn`t much from the car detailing side; Megs, Mothers, Eagle One, Turtle Wax, Viking, Blue Coral, etc all have displays. But most of the mfr`s we talk about here do not display at SEMA.



If you`re into wheels and tires, SEMA is sensory overload. The sheer number of custom wheel mfr`s is stunning. There are a bazillion custom show cars and trucks showing off the latest cool thing from the mfr`s. The Big Three have large displays of concept cars as do Honda, Nissan, Toyota and a couple others. SEMA is auto aftermarket stuff (modding, customizing, etc). AAPEX is more hard parts from companies like Dana, Spicer, Eaton, Delphi, etc. So it`s really two shows in one (actually like 3 or 4 with the various tire industry assn`s showing as well).



Try to get your registration credentials in advance as waiting in line to register and get a badge will take hours.



I`ve been to SEMA several times, it`s a lot of fun!!

everything is a must see. I`ve been a few times, will most likely be going this year for atleast a day.

SENSORY OVERLOAD is right!

After 24 years, it`s starting to get boring.....



So much cool stuff, and so little time.
