                              KEY PLASTICS, INC.
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


1.  Financial Statement Presentation:

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 which
contain a summary of the Company's accounting principles and other
information.  The results of operations for any interim period should not
necessarily be considered indicative of the results of operations for a full
year.

Information for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
is unaudited but includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, which management of Key Plastics, Inc. (the "Company")
considers necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial
position, results of operations and cash flows.  Certain information and
footnotes necessary to comply with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted.  All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain items in the December 31, 1996 balance sheet have been reclassified
to conform to the current period presentation.

During March of 1997 the Company completed several actions to refinance its
existing debt and secure additional financing for the future, including: 
(1) A tender offer for all of its $65.0 million, 14% Senior Notes due 1999
[$40.1 million of the notes were tendered]; (2)  A private placement for
$125.0 million, 10-1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007; and (3)  Entered
into a new $140.0 million Senior Credit Facility.

In 1996 the Company acquired injection molding, painting and assembly
operations primarily serving the automotive industry in the United Kingdom
(acquired May 1, 1996) and Portugal (controlling interest acquired November
1, 1996).  On March 28, 1997 the Company acquired three injection molding
and assembly operations from Aeroquip Corporation, a subsidiary of Aeroquip-
Vickers Corporation (the Aeroquip Acquisition).  The Aeroquip Acquisition
expands the Company's existing decorative bezel business.  On June 30, 1997
the Company acquired the screen printing and injection molding operations of
T.D. Shea Manufacturing, Inc. (the T.D. Shea Acquisition).  The T.D. Shea
Acquisition gives the Company the ability to control production of appliques
used in its decorative bezels and instrument cluster assemblies.  These
acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method.  The
consolidated financial statements include the results of operations and cash
flows for the acquired companies from the date of acquisition as well as the
financial position at June 30, 1997.

                             
2.  Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined
using the FIFO (first in, first out) method.  The components of inventories
consisted of the following:

                                  June 30,       December 31,
                                    1997            1996

3.  Earnings Per Share:

Earnings per share amounts for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1997 and 1996 are computed by using net income divided by the weighted
average number of shares of common and common equivalent shares outstanding
during the period using the treasury stock method.

The weighted average number of shares used in computing earnings per share
are 345,076 and 331,735 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, and 345,076 and 331,819 for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996, respectively.

The Company is closely-held and, accordingly, there is no public market for
the Company's common stock.  For purposes of computing the incremental
common equivalent shares outstanding under the treasury stock method, the
Company utilized management's estimate of fair value of the Company's Common
Stock.

4.  Accounting Changes:

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"), Earnings
per share, was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in
February 1997.  Adoption of SFAS 128, effective for periods ending after
December 15, 1997 is not expected to have a material effect on reported

Acquisitions:

On March 28, 1997, the Company acquired three injection molding and assembly
operations owned by Aeroquip Corporation, a subsidiary of Aeroquip-Vickers
Corporation.  The acquired business represents an expansion of the Company's
existing decorative bezel business.  The acquisition has been accounted for
using the purchase method.  On June 30, 1997, the Company acquired the
assets of T.D. Shea Manufacturing, Inc.  Such assets include screen printing
and injection molding operations located in Indiana.  This acquisition gives
the Company the ability to control production of appliques used in its
decorative bezels and instrument cluster assemblies.  This acquisition has
also been accounted for using the purchase method.   

Three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to three months ended June
30,1996:

Net sales for the three month period ended June 30, 1997 were $81.6 million;
an increase of approximately $24.1 million or 42% over the same period last
year.  The increase was attributable to acquired businesses ($18.0 million)
and volume related increases in existing injection molding, paint and
assembly operations primarily related to new programs ($4.8 million). 
Tooling revenues increased $1.3 million over the prior year making up the
balance of the $24.1 million increase.

Gross profit increased $5.3 million in the second quarter of 1997 compared
to the second quarter of 1996 primarily as a result of the aforementioned
sales increases.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2.6 million in the
second quarter of 1997 as compared to the same period last year.  The
increase is primarily related to 1996 and 1997 acquisitions.

<PAGE>

Operating income increased over the prior year second quarter by $2.3
million as a result of the foregoing.

Interest expense increased because of higher average debt outstanding offset
by slightly lower interest rates.


Six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to six months ended June 30, 1996:

Net sales for the six month period ended June 30, 1997 increased $45.5
million or 44% over the same period last year. The increase was attributable
to acquired businesses, including the full year effect of 1996 acquisitions
($32.8 million) and volume related increases in existing injection molding,
paint and assembly operations primarily related to new programs ($11.4
million).  Tooling revenues increased $1.3 million over the prior year
making up the balance of the $45.5 million increase.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.8 million in the
first half of 1997 as compared to 1996.  The increase is primarily related
to 1996 and 1997 acquisitions.

The increase in amortization relates primarily to costs incurred refinancing
the Company's debt which was completed in March as discussed below.
   
Operating income increased by $2.5 million as a result of the foregoing.

Interest expense increased $3.2 million for the reasons discussed in the
three month comparison above.

The extraordinary item of $5.5 million represents the amount paid for the
tender offer and related consent fees for the retirement of $40.1 million of
the 14% Senior Notes due 1999 and the write-off of the related unamortized
original issue costs.
   
FINANCIAL POSITION

During March 1997 the following actions to refinance the Company's debt were
completed:

    (1) A tender offer for all of its $65.0 million, 14% Senior Notes due
1999 [$40.1 million of the notes were tendered and repaid; $24.9 million
remain outstanding];

    (2)  A private placement for $125.0 million, 10-1/4% New Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2007; and

   (3)  Entered into a $140.0 million Senior Credit Facility.

The proceeds of the private placement were principally used to fund the
tender and replace existing bank debt.  Borrowings on the Senior Credit
Facility were for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions,
discussed more fully above.

Accounts receivable increased by $24.7 million  comparing June 30,  1997 to
December 31, 1996.  $8.9 million is due to increased parts sales at the
Company's existing facilities and timing within the quarter (June tends to
be a peak volume month, where December tends to be a non-peak month). 
Accounts receivable at acquired operations added $12.1 million to accounts
receivable at June 30, 1997.  Customer tooling related receivables increased
by $3.7 million over the prior quarter primarily as a result of increased
tooling programs. 

The inventory increase of $4.2 million from December 31, 1996 to June 30,
1997 was due in part to the inventory from acquired companies of $4.1
million and $3.3 million related to increases in customer tooling inventory
related to the design and build of tooling for programs expected to launch
in 1998. Inventory at the Company's existing operations decreased $3.2
million as a result of efficiencies and enhanced cooperation with suppliers.


<PAGE>

Accrued liabilities decreased by $6.5 million from December 31, 1996 due
primarily to the $5.9 million payout of all accrued interest for the debt
refinanced.

Property, plant and equipment increased $13.9 million due primarily to
acquisitions ($11.5 million) and purchases of capital items at existing
operating locations ($9.3 million), net of the increases in the depreciation
reserve for the six month period ($7.1 million).

The Company believes its existing sources of liquidity are adequate to meet
its operating requirements in fiscal 1997.
