AAM Group Virtual Trade Show Adds Build Contest

As part of its inaugural “The Event” virtual new-product trade show, The AAM Group is calling for submissions for the Masterpieces of Metal vehicle-build contest. Sponsored by Westin Automotive, Masterpieces of Metal invites automotive builders to submit their best creations and have them judged by attendees of The Event. The top vote-getter will be named the Grand Prize winner and receive a Superwinch winch of their choice and a custom trophy.  Other category winners will also each receive a custom trophy.  Builders can submit entries online now through Nov. 15.

Any automotive aftermarket reseller, upfitter, restyler or shop can submit one or more builds to the Masterpieces of Metal contest.  All entries must be the original work of the entrant and have been built in 2020.  Full promotional rules and conditions of entry can be viewed at masterpiecesofmetal.aamevent.com.

Free to reseller attendees, The Event 2020 is a new online show designed to help local automotive aftermarket businesses quickly and easily discover many of the best new products for 2021, the AAM Group says. The Event will present new products in category-overview videos as well as deep-dive videos for all spotlighted products. Virtual attendees can chat with manufacturers directly about the new products and contact their AAM warehouse distributor about purchasing.

The Event will run Nov. 30 to Dec. 13. Resellers interested in attending can sign up by clicking here.
