NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
(UNAUDITED)
JUNE 27, 1997

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for fair presentation, with
respect to the interim financial statements have been included. The results of
operations for the three month period ended June 27, 1997 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ended March 28,
1998. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes
thereto for the year ended March 29, 1997, included in the Keystone Automotive
Industries, Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-3994) filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission and declared effective on June 26,
1997.

2. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of
shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents attributable to stock
options. Common Stock equivalents were calculated using the treasury stock
method.

3. INCOME TAXES

Income tax provisions for interim periods are based on estimated
effective annual income tax rates.

4. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Issued
Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be adopted on
December 31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be required to change the
method currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior
periods. Under the new requirements for calculating primary earnings per share,
the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The impact of Statement
128 on the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended
June 27, 1997 would not be material.

5. ACQUISITIONS

The Company completed two acquisitions of distributors of aftermarket
collision replacement parts during the period. The aggregate purchase price of
the acquisitions was approximately $4,090,000 and they were accounted for using
the purchase accounting method.

6. MERGER

On March 28, 1997, the Company completed a merger with North Star
Plating Company by issuing 2,450,000 shares of its Common Stock. The
acquisition was accounted for under the pooling of interests method of
accounting. The accounts are of the combined company for all periods presented.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On June 26, 1997, the Company commenced a secondary offering of Common
Stock with respect to a total of 2,610,000 shares, which offering was completed
and payment was received from the Underwriters on July 2, 1997. The offering
also included 2,610,000 shares from selling shareholders. Net proceeds to the
Company are estimated to be approximately $37,820,000.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
(CONTINUED)

On June 30, 1997, the Company completed an acquisition of a
distributor of aftermarket collision replacement parts with six locations in the
southwestern United States. The acquisition was completed by issuing stock and
assuming certain liabilities and was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. On August 6, 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of a
distributor of paint and related materials with operations in Murray (Salt Lake
City area), Orem and Bountiful, Utah. The acquisition was a cash transaction and
was accounted under the purchase method.

8. SEVERANCE COSTS

The Company incurred approximately $705,000 of costs related to the
severance of its former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters
addressed in this Item 2 constitute "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking
statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by the Company's
management. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act")
provides certain "safe harbor" provisions for forward-looking statements. All
forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made
pursuant to the Act.

GENERAL
- -------

On March 28, 1997, the Company completed the North Star Merger which
was accounted for as a pooling of interests, in which the Company issued
2,450,000 shares of its Common Stock. The pooling of interests method of
accounting requires that financial information be presented on an historical
combined basis for all periods presented. Therefore, the following discussion
of results of operations and liquidity and capital resources reflects the
combined companies

RECENT ACQUISITIONS
- -------------------

In May 1997, the Company acquired the assets of Alloy Wheel Service,
Inc. which operated wheel remanufacturing facilities in Minneapolis, Minnesota
and Chicago, Illinois. Also in May 1997, the Company acquired the assets of
U.S. Plating Corporation dba Alert Bumper with operations in Tampa and Orlando,
Florida. The Orlando facility will be combined with the Company's existing
facility in that city. These acquisitions were cash transactions and were
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
- -----------------

On June 30, 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of All Makes
Body Parts, Inc. with operations in Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona, El Paso, Texas,
Albuquerque, New Mexico, Las Vegas, Nevada and Denver, Colorado. This
acquisition was accomplished by the issuance of 234,552 shares of stock and the
assumption of certain liabilities and was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting. On August 6, 1997, the Company acquired the assets of
Reddish Professional Auto Paint Supply, Inc. with operations in Murray (Salt
Lake City area), Orem and Bountiful, Utah. This was a cash transaction accounted
for under the purchase method.

===== =====

Three Months ended June 27, 1997 Compared to three Months ended June 29, 1996

Net sales were $53.5 million for the three months ended June 27, 1997
compared to $45.6 million for the three months ended June 29, 1996, an increase
of $7.9 million or 17.4%. This increase was due primarily to an increase of
$2.4 million in sales of automotive body parts (including fenders, hoods,
headlights, radiators, grilles and other crash parts), an increase of $2.6
million in sales of new and recycled bumpers and an increase of $1.3 million in
sales of paint and related materials, which increases represent increases of
approximately 14%, 15% and 15%, respectively, over the comparable period in the
prior fiscal year. In addition, the Company sold approximately $1.5 million of
remanufactured alloy wheels in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to
$301,000 in the prior year period, an increase of 397%. These increases
were attributable primarily to an increase in the number of service centers in
operation and an increase in unit volume. Price increases were not a material
factor in increased net sales.

Gross profit increased to $21.6 million (40.3% of net sales) in the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 from $18.3 million (40.2% of net sales) in the
first quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of 17.7%, primarily as a result of the
increase in net sales. The Company's gross profit margin has fluctuated, and is
expected to continue to fluctuate, depending on a number of factors, including
changes in product mix, acquisitions and competition.

Selling and distribution expenses increased to $14.3 million (26.7% of
net sales) in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 from $12.8 million (28.0% of net
sales) in the first quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of 12%. The decrease in
these expenses as a percentage of net sales was generally the result of certain
fixed costs being absorbed over a larger revenue base, which were partially
offset by costs associated with consolidating and assimilating acquisitions.

General and administrative expenses increased to $3.2 million (6.1% of
net sales) in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 from $2.5 million (5.5% of net
sales) in the first quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of 29.4%. The increase
in these expenses as a percentage of net sales in fiscal 1997 was primarily the
result of costs incurred in assimilating acquired operations.

In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company
incurred $705,000 of severance costs related to resignation of its former
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

(9)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

In June 1997, Keystone completed a secondary public offering of
2,610,000 shares of its Common Stock, yielding net proceeds to the Company,
after discounts, commissions and expenses, of approximately $37.8 million. An
additional 2,610,000 shares were sold in the secondary by shareholders.

On March 25, 1997, the Company entered into a revolving loan agreement
with a commercial lender that provides for a $25.0 million unsecured credit
facility that expires on March 24, 1998. Advances under the revolving line of
credit bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.75% (6.46% at June 27, 1997). At June 27,
1997, approximately $19.3 million was outstanding under the credit facility
which amount was paid off in July 1997 with proceeds from the secondary
offering. The revolving loan agreement is subject to certain restrictive
covenants and requires that the Company maintain certain financial ratios. The
Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 27, 1997.

The Company's primary need for funds has been to finance the growth of
inventory and accounts receivable and acquisitions. At June 27, 1997, working
capital was $62.1 million compared to $26.8 million at March 28, 1997.
Historically, the Company has financed its working capital requirements from its
cash flow from operations, advances drawn under lines of credit and, to a
limited extent, indebtedness to certain of the sellers of acquired service
centers.

The Company believes that its existing working capital, estimated cash
flow from operations and the credit available under its line of credit will
enable it to finance its anticipated growth in sales and to complete anticipated
acquisitions for at least the next 12 months.

The Company believes that consolidation among independent distributors
of aftermarket collision parts is creating opportunities for the Company to
acquire service centers in new and existing markets. The Company intends to
explore acquisition opportunities that may arise from time to time. To date,
the Company's acquisitions have been financed by cash flow from operations,
advances drawn under its credit facilities and indebtedness to certain of the
sellers of acquired service centers. In the future, the Company may incur
indebtedness or issue equity or debt securities to third parties or the sellers
of the acquired businesses to complete additional acquisitions. There can be no
assurance that additional capital, if and when required, will be available on
terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. In addition, current and future
issuance of equity securities, if any, will result in dilution to the
shareholders of the Company.

INFLATION
- ---------

The Company does not believe that the relatively moderate rates of
inflation over the past three years have had a significant effect on its net
sales or its profitability.
