Nah, not really sorry just being silly.<br \/>carparts-australia was founded by David Fitzpatrick who previously co-founded another 4\u00d74 company (I\u2019ll let you guess which one.) After I left that company in the middle of 2018, there was a serious development phase, and a lot of cool and exciting 4\u00d74 accessories were made before the April 2019 launch. Because of their wild and fun nature, these accessories are known as carparts-australia. Oh, they also work pretty good too.<br \/>We set out to develop products that really make your 4wd stand out and look cool whilst serving a purpose. The management team is dedicated and passionate 4wders, tourers, over-landers or whatever you want to call us. We like to head bush or off road, and have fun camping or just trying to climb crazy hills.<br \/>Rest assured all your products are designed and tested in Australia by qualified engineers. Yep we all went to Uni to learn Engineering. Crazy I know. We manufacture in a variety of countries depending on what product it is. These countries include Australia about 30%, Vietnam 60% and Thailand 10%.<br \/>Our head office is based in Mornington Victoria, stop by for a chat. Ok\u2026 what else can I put here\u2026. hrm thinking, thinking. Is this sufficient, and do you now feel like you know us?
