The many hours put into building a show truck or car is immense and requires a vision that brings together style, performance, and innovative ideas. AIRDESIGN USA shows they can keep the design of a show truck neat and tidy, while keeping the rugged appearance of the F-150. Using aftermarket trim pieces straight from their catalog, AIRDESIGN proves that modifying a truck can be done hassle-free in the convenience of your own garage.

Modifications that aren’t easily noticeable and require more sophisticated tools and skills include a Vortech intercooler upgrade, installation of Bilstein 5160 series Lifted Performance shocks and reservoir, welding a Gibson cat-back stainless steel exhaust kit, and installing a custom Focal audio system.

Close inspection of the truck’s transformation can be seen at the 2015 SEMA Show in Las Vegas if you have industry access. The AIR DESIGN Ford F-150 SuperCrew will be one of seven modified trucks invited to be on display in Ford’s booth.
