The competition also promised to give exposure to creative artists and set them on the right path to a career in automotive design. Here are MensStuffApproved we think that this initiative is a great way to inspire youngsters and getting them to consider creative career options from a young age. The company was absolutely inundated by talented youths all vying to win the coveted title and prizes.
