AAM GROUP AND PERFORMANCE CORNER BRING TOGETHER AFTERMARKET PARTNERS TO BENEFIT NAVY SEAL FOUNDATION

“NSF1” Show Jeep To Be Presented to Navy SEAL Foundation at 2016 AAM Membership Meeting

October 7, 2015 (JOHNSON CITY, Tenn.) — The AAM Group, the largest program distribution group in the SEMA marketplace, is proud to announce NSF1: a fully customized 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited being built to benefit the Navy SEAL Foundation. NSF1 is intended to represent the spirit of the Naval Special Warfare community and features the best products from leading manufacturers within the SEMA accessory aftermarket.

AAM secured commitments from more than two dozen manufacturing partners to purchase the Jeep and outfit it with the latest aftermarket products; the donated accessories showcase the full power of AAM’s Jeep aftermarket lineup. AAM’s Special Markets Manager Greg Griffith oversaw the project’s concept, design and implementation with additional installation help from RPM Offroad (Edelbrock supercharger), Atomic City 4×4 (ring and pinion gears and chromoly axles) and Autopro of Nashville (custom Katzkin leather seat covers and a KICKER audio upgrade).

Now in its 15th year, the Navy SEAL Foundation maintains programs that help Naval Special Warfare warriors and their families cope with the rigors, stress and sacrifice associated with military deployment to some of the world’s most dangerous places. After completing a national circuit of appearances, NSF1 will be handed over to the nonprofit during a special ceremony at AAM’s 2016 Membership Meeting. The foundation plans to use the vehicle at its various recruitment drives, publicity events and outreach engagements.

Dee Zee in Da House!

By John M. Arnaud

Earlier this week, Performance Corner and The AAM Group hosted four special representatives from one of our oldest program vendors: Dee Zee, a Des Moines, IA–based company that serves both the OE and aftermarket industries with a versatile product lineup.

We spent the day discussing ways to identify more of our Performance Corner locations as Dee Zee destinations and scheduled some video shoots that will educate consumers and jobbers alike about some of Dee Zee’s biggest sellers.

Thanks to Director of Aftermarket Sales Troy Wirtz, Regional Sales Manager Doug Vinsand, Marketing and Advertising Director Dan Kruzic, and Art Director Matt Gearhart for making the trip out to AAM headquarters. We loved having you and look forward to an exciting year ahead!

Big-block Chrysler valve covers have just been added to the Elite II line. The next generation of Elite Series accessories, the Elite II, is a modern take on the classic design.

BedRug (BRY13DCK): Bed Liner for 2016 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab

This is the most innovative and unique truck bed liner there is. You get the look and comfort of carpet in an ultra-tough, 100% polypropylene product. That means not only will it shield your truck bed from impact dings and damage, but it will also stand up to the most harsh conditions you can throw at it—from gravel to battery acid—while still protecting your precious cargo and your knees!

Molded to fit your specific make and model, this liner looks great and fits like a glove. It creates a void-free surface without damaging your truck and allows easy access to factory tie-downs and accessories. Its non-skid surface keeps your cargo in place, and a built-in hinge between the truck bed and tailgate prevents debris from collecting. BedRug material is made of fade- and UV-resistant foam similar to that used in life jackets; it doesn’t absorb water and will not mold or mildew. Water will simply run off the surface, through the zippered perimeter, out the factory drain holes in the truck bed and will dry in as little as 20 minutes. Just clean it with a hose, power washer, or vacuum, and your BedRug is good as new.

  • Rugged Construction Handles Heavy Cargo
  • Bleach, Oil, and Even Battery Acid Washes Off
  • Comfortable, Knee-Friendly 3/4″ Cushioned Floor
  • Anti-Skid Surface Prevents Cargo from Shifting
  • Engineered for Exterior Use
  • Stain and & UV Resistant
  • Easily Cleaned with Just Water
