I would guess both Jap and JAP, but leaning more towards Jap being as they sell Japanese motor parts.

JAPs or Japs? I think Japs do (they're pretty clean people) but JAPs probably hire people to do it for them.

I dated a JAP in highschool. Smokin' hot with quite an appetite for destruction. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
