Wangs International was founded in 1984 based on the belief that providing high quality products at fair prices was a guiding principle that would carry the company to a successful future. This value proposition became the foundation on which all Wangs and Pilot activities are based. Company began as a small, niche supplier of automotive accessories to the traditional Accessory Market. Pilot Automotive was created in 1996 to support the growing DIY Market. Both sides of the company are designed to specialize and maximize the different types of support required for different types of markets.
In the beginning, Pilots warehouse and offices actually occupied the same room and Pilot had one employee. Today, Pilot have grown to five distribution centers, more than 100 Pilot team members, and are one of the largest automotive and truck accessory suppliers. Pilot purchased the intellectual property of American Products Company (APC) and added Vehicle Performance Systems (VPS) in 2006. APC is one of the best known accessory brands in the history of the Specialty Equipment Market and VPS is Pilot OEM Division – now supplying a number of vehicle manufacturers of all types. In 2007, Pilot added DC Sports, an iconic performance brand. DC Sports comprise the Performance Division of Pilot. Whatever you drive, you can count on Pilot to offer the highest quality, most innovative, best performing product for your car or truck!
