Anybody hear anything about carspnsorships.com? Seems like a huge scam somehow, but I really don't know. I'm not saying I'm interested, but I cam across a youtube video with this guy who said he built a carbon fiber "fortune" body kit for an rx-7. You know, the orange one in tokyo drift? Looks to good to be true.

It is. You pay them, then you can get discounts on certain things. Its a total scam though.

I thought so. Some of the arts makers was low key anyway.

I did it once... it's not a scam. You get some pretty sweet deals on stuff. If you do an actual sponsorship, you get free shit. It's how I got my killerglass radiator hose. Most of the stuff is cosmetic, but there is some performance as well.

If you use it, the $90 or whatever annual fee they charge you ends up being worth it.

I found out about it from a friend of mine who had a fairly nice Neon... it was a Neon so I wasn't overly impressed, but the car was built on that website. It was a huge billboard of sponsors of course, but it had a lot of mods done to it.

Not a scam. Actually a great company that puts you in contact with potential sponsors. I got with them in 2007, and made some good contacts (Killerglass amongst others). I stay in touch with my sponsors, and have received hook ups for my other car.
