                          TALON AUTOMOTIVE GROUP, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                (IN THOUSANDS)


1.  ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
by Talon Automotive Group, Inc. (the "Company"), pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information furnished
in the consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments
and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December
31, 1999.

The Company reports quarterly financial information in thirteen-week increments
and ends each respective quarter on the Saturday following the thirteenth week
with the fiscal year ending December 31.

2.  EFFECT OF ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, "Accounting for Derivatives Instruments
and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No.
133--an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133." Statement No. 137 defers the
effective date of Statement No. 133 by one year to fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. Accordingly, the Company plans to adopt Statement No. 133
beginning in 2001. Implementation of this statement is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's results of operations.

In September 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus
on EITF Statement No. 99-5, "Accounting for Pre-Production Costs Related to
Long-Term Supply Arrangements". Statement No. 99-5 restricts capitalization of
pre-production costs based on certain criteria and is effective, on a
prospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1999. On
January 1, 2000, the Company adopted Statement 99-5 and has not capitalized any
pre-production costs for the six month period ending July 1, 2000. This
accounting change has the effect of accelerating expense recognition of advance
costs related to business that has not yet begun production. The Company has
defined these advance engineering and program management costs of future
business as "Advanced Program Expenses". If the Company is not able to meet
capitalization criteria prescribed by Statement 99-5 during 2000, it could
reduce the Company's reported earnings by up to $3,000 as compared to 1999. Due
to the materiality of these expenses, advanced program expenses have been
separated on the consolidated statement of operations. The change has no effect
on cash flow.


3.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of July 1, 2000, there were no significant changes to the status of
commitments and contingencies presented in the footnotes to the financial
statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.

5.  COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

as compared to $2,489 and $5,051 for the second quarter and six months ended
July 3, 1999.


6.  SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR INFORMATION

Veltri Metal Products Co. and Veltri Holdings, Inc. (collectively, the "Veltri
Group") are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company and constitute all of the
direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company. The Veltri Group has fully and
unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, the obligation to pay
principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Company's senior
subordinated notes.

There are no restrictions on the ability of the Veltri Group to transfer funds
to the Company in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances, except as
follows: (i) pursuant to the senior credit agreement the Veltri Group agreed not
to (a) declare or make any dividend or other distribution with respect to any
shares of capital stock; or (b) make loans, advances or extensions of credit to
any person (except for credit sales in the ordinary course of business and loans
to affiliates in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15,000 at any time
outstanding); and (ii) pursuant to the indenture agreement for the Company's
senior subordinated notes, the Veltri Group is prohibited from making loans or
advances to the Company if a default or event of default shall have occurred
under the indenture.

Management does not believe that separate financial statements for the Veltri
Group is material to investors. Therefore, separate financial statements and
other disclosures concerning the Veltri Group have been omitted, and in lieu
thereof, summarized financial information relating to the Veltri Group is shown
as follows:

7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company has a business services agreement with Talon L.L.C., an affiliated
company owned by the shareholders of the Company. Under this agreement, the
Company receives services of risk management, benefits management, tax
preparation and other services from Talon L.L.C. as requested by the Company.
For the six month period ended July 1, 2000 and July 3, 1999, the Company paid
fees to Talon L.L.C. of $250 under this agreement.

In 1996, the Company purchased the outstanding capital stock of the Veltri Group
and a former shareholder of the Veltri Group was appointed as an officer of the
Company. The stock purchase agreement included certain earnout provisions
payable to the former shareholder. On April 6, 2000, the Company made an earnout
payment of approximately $1.8 million, including interest, for the calendar year
1999. This was the Company's final earnout payment due under the stock purchase
agreement.


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

THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 1, 2000
AS COMPARED TO THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 3, 1999

Net Sales

Net sales for the three month period ended July 1, 2000 ("second quarter 2000")
were $82.6 million compared to $78.7 million for the three month period ended
July 3, 1999 ("second quarter 1999"). This represents an increase of
$3.9 million or 5% as compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily due
to higher industry volumes and incremental new business on the General Motors
GMT 800 truck platform and the Honda Odyssey minivan.

For the year-to-date period, net sales were $168.3 million compared to $149.7
million for the same period in the prior year. This represents an increase of
$18.6 million or 12.4% as compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily
due to higher industry volumes and incremental new business on the General
Motors GMT 800 truck platform, DaimlerChrysler Dodge Neon and Honda Odyssey
minivan.


Gross Profit

Gross profit for the second quarter 2000 was $9.6 million or 11.6% of net sales
compared to $9.4 million or 11.9% of net sales for the second quarter 1999. This
represents an increase of $0.2 million or 3% as compared to the prior year. The
increase was due to higher sales and the impact of a press breakdown in the
second quarter 1999.

For the year-to-date period, gross profit was $20.5 million or 12.2% compared to
$16.8 million or 11.2% of net sales for the same period in the prior year. This
represents an increase of $3.7 million or 22% as compared to the prior year.
This increase was primarily due to higher sales and the impact of a press
breakdown in the second quarter 1999.

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

SG&A expenses for the second quarter 2000 were $6.1 million or 7.4% of net sales
compared to $5.2 million or 6.6% of net sales for the second quarter 1999. The
increase of $0.9 million or 17% was primarily due to incremental investment in
program launches and consulting expenses.

For the year-to-date period, SG&A expenses were $12.6 million or 7.5% of net
sales compared to $10.8 million or 7.2% of net sales for the same period in the
prior year. The increase of $1.9 million or 17% was primarily due to incremental
investment in program launches, consulting expenses and $0.2 million bad debt
provision in the first quarter 2000.




                                       8



<PAGE>   9

Advanced Program Expenses

Advanced program expenses for the second quarter 2000 and year-to-date period
were $0.7 million and $1.4 million or 1.0% of net sales. This expense was
capitalized for the same periods in the prior year, however, due to the new
accounting rule, FASB 99-5 (see "Effect of Accounting Pronouncements"), advanced
program expenses were expensed beginning January 1, 2000. Advanced program
expenses are the investment in advance engineering and program management for
future programs.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the second quarter 2000 was $4.9 million or 5.9% of net
sales, as compared to $4.0 million or 5.0% of net sales for the second quarter
1999. The increase of $0.9 million or 22% was due to higher borrowings and
higher interest rates on the Company's senior credit facility.

For the year-to-date period, interest expense was $9.5 million or 5.6% of net
sales, as compared to $8.0 million or 5.3% of net sales for the same period in
the prior year. The increase of $1.5 million or 19% was due to higher borrowings
and higher interest rates on the Company's senior credit facility.

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 provision for Canadian income taxes for the second
quarter 2000 was $0.5 million compared to $0.9 million for the second quarter
1999. For the year to date period, the provision was $1.5 million compared to
$1.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rate for
the first quarter 2000 and year to date period was approximately 41% and 39%.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the first six months of 2000, net cash flow used in operating activities
totaled $13.7 million compared to $6.1 million used in operating activities for
the same period in the prior year. The change compared to the prior year period
was due to the timing of expenditures for reimbursable tooling, accrued earnout
payments associated with the acquisition of the Veltri Group and working capital
changes.

Net cash used in investing activities primarily relates to capital expenditures.
Capital expenditures totaled $0.8 million for the first six months compared to
$12.5 million for the first six months of 1999. Capital expenditures were
primarily for new machinery and equipment. The decrease, as compared to the
prior year period, was largely due to a sale-leaseback transaction in February
and April of 2000 for which the Company was reimbursed $9.6 million.

The Company has made significant capital expenditures related to a new
production facility and new equipment for the 2002 Jeep Cherokee program ("KJ").
Through July 1, 2000, the cumulative construction-in-process related to the KJ
totaled approximately $9.2 million. The Company believes the new KJ will launch
by the second quarter 2001 and additional KJ capital expenditures of
approximately $6.0 million will be required through that date.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $14.6 million for the first
six months of 2000, compared to $12.0 million for the first six months of 1999.
Financing activities primarily related to incremental borrowings on the
Company's senior credit facility for working capital requirements and
reimbursable tooling investments.

EBITDA for the second quarter 2000 was $5.0 million as compared to $6.5 million
for the second quarter 1999. This represents a decrease of $1.5 million or 23%
as compared to the prior year period. For the year to date period, EBITDA was
$10.9 million compared to $11.0 million for the same period in the prior year.
This represents an decrease of $0.1 million or 1% 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.

<PAGE>   10

On June 27, 2000 the Company's $100 million senior credit facility was amended
to increase the interim borrowing limit on the facility from $63 million to $75
million. On July 1, 2000, the Company was in default of two financial covenants
in the senior credit facility agreement, the interest coverage and quarterly
EBITDA covenants, as defined.  On August 11, 2000 the Company's senior credit
facility was amended to waive these defaults through September 29, 2000 and
redefine the borrowing advance rates and remove the interim borrowing limit. The
Company expects to amend the senior credit facility in the third quarter 2000
resetting financial covenants. On July 1, 2000, borrowings under the senior
credit facility were $55.9 million with the availability to borrow an additional
$3 million based on the financial covenants contained in the senior credit
facility agreement. The Company believes borrowing availability under the senior
credit facility, together with funds generated by operations, should provide
sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet its working capital
requirements, capital expenditures and other operating needs for the foreseeable
future.


CHRYSLER SALES DECLINE

The company expects to have significant decline in the Chrysler LH sales, in the
third quarter 2000, due to a paint line explosion at the Chrysler LH Bramalea,
Ontario assembly facility. The paint line explosion, which occurred in July
2000, resulted in the Bramalea facility remaining closed for an additional three
weeks after the regularly scheduled July 3, 2000 shutdown period (two weeks).
The Company believes the Bramalea facility is anticipating increasing production
volumes through August. The Company believes the impact of this extended
shutdown may have a material adverse effect on the Company's earnings for the
third quarter 2000.


FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates
and prices, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates
and commodity prices. The Company believes there was no significant change in
its market risk factors since December 31, 1999.
