7.  RESTRUCTURING CHARGE

During the quarter ended December 31, 2000, the Company initiated a plan to
integrate what was formerly known as the PSI division into other existing
Company operations. This plan includes the closure of four existing PSI
facilities in 2000 and 2001 and the movement of the related sales volume and
corresponding equipment into existing operations in New Baltimore, Michigan,
Royal Oak, Michigan and Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Upon completion of the
integration, approximately 170 employees will be eliminated with estimated
savings totaling $9,600 per year, when complete. In addition, four facilities
with related infra-structure costs will be eliminated with estimated savings of
$2,800 per year, when complete. The Company anticipates the majority of this
integration to be completed by the third quarter of 2001.

As a result of this integration plan, the Company recorded a $10,183
restructuring charge in 2000. This reserve includes severance benefits for
terminated employees, the write-off of certain leasehold improvements, future
lease obligations for buildings that have been or will be vacated and other
facility closure costs. During the first quarter of 2001, the Company incurred
$1,155 of severance and facility shutdown costs which were charged against this
reserve leaving a balance of $9,027 as of March 31, 2001.

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

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 1,
2000

Net Sales

Net sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 ("first quarter 2001")
were $63.2 million compared to $85.7 million for the three month period ended
April 1, 2000 ("first quarter 2000"). This represents an decrease of
$22.5 million or 26.2% as compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily
due to lower industry volumes, OEM inventory adjustments and the balance out of
certain Chrysler programs.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the first quarter 2001 was $4.9 million or 7.8% of net sales
compared to $10.9 million or 12.7% of net sales for the first quarter 2000. This
represents an decrease of $6.0 million or 55% as compared to the prior year. The
decrease was primarily due to lower sales, costs associated with the integration
of the PSI division, and increased overhead in preparation for the Jeep Liberty
launch.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG&A")

SG&A expenses for the first quarter 2001 were $6.0 million or 9.4% of net sales
compared to $6.5 million or 7.6% of net sales for the first quarter 2000. The
decrease of $0.5 million or 8.8% was primarily due to the integration of the PSI
division.

Advanced Program Expenses

Advanced program expenses for the first quarter 2001 were $0.6 million or 1.0%
of net sales compared to $0.7 million or 0.8% of net sales for the first quarter
2000. The decrease of $0.1 million or 11.4% was primarily due to cost
reductions. Advanced program expenses are the investment in engineering and
program management for future programs.

Amortization expense

Amortization expense for the first quarter 2001 was $0.4 million or 0.6% of net
sales compared to $0.4 million or 0.5% of net sales for the first quarter 2000.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the first quarter 2001 was $4.7 million or 7.4% of net
sales, as compared to $4.6 million or 5.4% of net sales for the first quarter
2000. The increase of $0.1 million or 1.5% was primarily due to the higher
balance on the Company's senior credit facility, offset by lower interest rates.

Foreign Currency

Foreign currency gains and losses all relate to the company's Canadian
operation. The foreign currency gain for the first quarter 2001 was $0.3 million
or an increase of $0.3 million from the first quarter of 2000.

Income Taxes

The Company's shareholder's have elected under the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code to be treated as an S-Corporation with respect to the Company's
U.S. operations. As a result, income taxes relate solely to the Company's
Canadian operations. The decrease in taxes was due to the decline in sales and
related profitability in Canada.

Form 10Q                                                                  Page 8

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The company's primary cash requirements are for working capital, servicing the
company's indebtedness and capital expenditures.

The company's liquidity is affected by both the cyclical nature of its business
and levels of net sales to its major customers. The company's ability to meet
its working capital and capital expenditure requirements and debt obligations
will depend on its future operating performance, which will be affected by
prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors,
certain of which are beyond its control. The company's ability to meet its
future cash flow requirements under its existing borrowing agreements and cash
flow projections depends upon the outcome of negotiations currently in process
with the senior subordinated noteholders, senior bank group, shareholders and
management. The outcome of these negotiations cannot be determined at this time.

Net cash flow used in operating activities totaled $9.8 million in the first
quarter 2001 as compared to $8.4 million used in operating activities in the
first quarter 2000. The change compared to the prior year period was due to the
increased net loss between periods, offset by favorable changes in working
capital.

Net cash used in investing activities primarily relates to capital expenditures.
Capital expenditures totaled $3.7 million for the first quarter 2001 as compared
to $0.3 million for the first quarter 2000. Capital expenditures were primarily
for new machinery and equipment on the Chrysler 2003 CS hybrid vehicle and the
integration of the PSI division. As compared to the prior year, capital
expenditures, excluding the sale-leaseback transaction in February 2000 of $6.4
million, decreased $3.0 million due to the completion of the capital plan for
the 2002 Jeep Liberty program ("KJ") and 2001 (RS) minivan.

The Company has made significant capital expenditures related to a new
production facility and new equipment for the 2002 Jeep Liberty program ("KJ").
Through March 31, 2001, the capital expenditures for KJ production totaled
approximately $12.2 million of capital and will launch during the second quarter
2001.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $11.8 million for the first
quarter 2001 compared to $9.1 million for the first quarter 2000. Financing
activities primarily related to incremental borrowings on the Company's senior
credit facility to finance the net loss, tooling investments and capital
investments.

SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

On February 16, 2001 the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement with its bank group. This agreement amended and restated financial
covenants such that the Company was no longer in default for the quarters ending
July 1, September 30 and December 31, 2000 and reset advance rates, removed
interim limits and reset financial and other covenants through the original term
of the agreement which ends April 27, 2003. In addition, the amendment
eliminated as an event of default the existing cross-defaults under the
Company's $120 million 9.625% senior subordinated notes for a forty-five day
period or until April 2, 2001 to allow the Company to continue negotiations with
its noteholders.  On March 29, 2001 the Company's senior facility was amended to
extend the April 2, 2001 negotiation deadline to April 30, 2001 to allow for
continued negotiations with the noteholders.  On May 10, 2001, the Company
received a partial waiver under its senior credit facility to provide access to
the senior credit facility under existing advance rates through May 25, 2001 to
allow for continued negotiations with the noteholders.

On March 31, 2001 the company had borrowed $76.0 million under the senior credit
facility with the availability to borrow an additional $11.0 million subject to
borrowing base limitations.

SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES

Due to liquidity concerns resulting from the performance of the PSI division,
sales declines with a major customer and capital investment for new program
launches, the Company elected not to make the November 1, 2000 interest payment
on its $120 million principal amount 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 1,
2008. The notes were declared in default on December 1, 2000 following the
expiration of a 30-day grace period. On November 30, 2000, the Company's bank
group formally exercised its right to block the interest payment for a period of
six months. The noteholders retain their rights to accelerate the principal of
the notes and exercise other remedies available to them under the terms of the
indenture including forcing the Company into an involuntary bankruptcy filing.
The Company believes that it currently does not have the ability to either cure
the interest payment default or refinance the outstanding notes.

Management and shareholders of the Company are continuing negotiations with the
Company's noteholders and its bank group to facilitate an exchange of
outstanding notes for equity in the Company. This transaction, if successful,
would significantly reduce the outstanding indebtedness and interest
obligations of the Company. The Company is optimistic that an agreement will be
reached in the near future. Upon reaching an agreement, the Company would
intend to effect the exchange through a prenegotiated plan of reorganization
involving bankruptcy reorganization proceedings in the United States and
creditors arrangement proceedings in Canada. Due to the nature of these
proceedings, the Company believes the process will be completed on an
expeditious basis in 2001. The Company does not anticipate or plan for any
impairment of creditors, other than the noteholders and parties to certain
unexpired leases during this process and does not anticipate any material
change in its operations. If the Company is unsuccessful in its negotiations
with the noteholders and its bank group, a deficiency in liquidity would occur
which would cause the Company to involuntarily enter bankruptcy proceedings.

   10
EBITDA for the first quarter 2001 was $0.8 million as compared to $5.9 million
for the first quarter 2000. This represents an decrease of $5.1 million or 87%
as compared to the prior year period. EBITDA is defined as income from
operations plus depreciation and amortization and may not be comparable to
similarly-titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is presented because it is
a widely accepted non-GAAP financial indicator of a company's ability to incur
and service debt. However, EBITDA should not be considered in isolation as a
substitute for net income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of a company's
profitability or liquidity.
