CAPA Certified Auto Parts
CAPA certification is the most effective standards-setting, quality assurance program of its kind. It establishes objective, measurable Quality Standards and Specifications for replacement parts for metals, plastics, lights, foam rubber and bumpers.
Each Standard provides detailed testing and inspection procedures to ensure the quality of the parts covered by that Specification. All test procedures utilise nationally recognized tests such as those of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and are publicly available.
TÜV Rheinland
TÜV Rheinland stands for safety and quality in virtually all areas of business and life. Founded almost 150 years ago, the company is one of the world’s leading testing service providers with more than 20,000 employees and annual revenues of 2 billion euros.
TÜV Rheinland’s highly qualified experts test technical systems and products around the world, support innovations in technology and business, train people in numerous professions and certify management systems according to international standards.

CAPA Bumper Test
In 2009, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), in the U.S., helped to demonstrate CAPA’s new CAPA 501 Bumper Standard by crash testing two 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 pickups. One pickup was fitted with an aftermarket bumper that meets the material, dimensional, strength, and vehicle fit requirements of CAPA’s standard. The pickup was crashed in a 5 mph full frontal test, plus a 40 mph offset frontal test and then compared the performance with the same model fitted with a Dodge bumper. Results for both of the pickups were nearly identical. The low-speed damage estimate came to USD $1,120 for each pickup. Likewise, in the high-speed test, both models had similar crashworthiness measures. “This is what we expected,” says Adrian Lund, the Institute’s president. “It shows that aftermarket parts can be reverse engineered without compromising safety. An aftermarket bumper that meets CAPA’s new standard should perform as well as the original.
