Porsche Tuner List - SIC Code ?

[RarlyL8]

I've Googled 'till I'm ready to throw the computer out the window.

What I am looking for is a comprehensive list of Porsche tuners in the US. Names like Gemballa, Ruff, ImagineAuto, etc. There's got to be a lot of them and someone has to have a list.
One method is SIC codes. What is Pelican's SIC code? It should be the same.

Any help appreciated.

Thank you!
I was hoping that SEMA manufacturers would have their own SIC code (wishfull thinking). The codes I tried earlier resulted in something like 60,000 unrelated businesses.
Where would be the most logical place to look for a complete list of 911 specific tuners? The popular ones we know. I want the little guys too.

I don't know of any 'compiled' database available that would encompass the entire industry.

Most of the 'tuner shops' you are interested in, unless they manufacture their own products, more than likely won't be in these databases...that is unless they are RUF, CEC, Dinan, etc.

The most common searchable databases are:

SEMA

ASAAA: Alliance of State Automotive Aftermarket Associations
www.asaaa.com

AAIA: Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association
www.aftermarket.org

MERA: Mobile Enhancement Retailers Association

Thanks again.
I'll try all of those and see if they can be narrowed down.
