CarSponsorhips.com --be careful!!-- waste of money.

Post by GuruJ »

Hi, Hate for this to be my first post. My lil bro found a site called CarSponsorhips.com. He is 18 and lives in old mill town and hasn't dealt with cons before. Well he paid the money and got ripped.He got a Full Sponsorship for..... Stickers. Seems the website also owns the sticker company. So from what I have read everyone gets a sticker sponsorship and then a quasi sponsorship for 50% off of House of Boom products. Mind you their prices are jacked up 60%. They fulfill their promise.... barely so they aren't breaking the law but will for sure go to hell (or reincarnate poorly). When I searched the forum I saw one post from 2004 and wanted to update the forum with a title that tells the story.Remember that sponsorships for cars are not given to people that have never entered a show. Just doesn't work that way. A discount isn't really a sponsorship but will probably be the most anyone sees without already having a trick car or show history.Namaste,Guru J

There have been posts on here about them and other sponsorships that myself and others have been ripped off by.

Thats every ricers dream sponsor. I went to 'Frogs' yesterday (graphics shop in town) to get a windshield strip made for my dads truck to match what I did to the rear and there were two kids there with Eclipses bringing the guy a magazine asking him to blow up the picture and copy the stickers of sponsors that were on a car in the magazine..lol

(removed). well if they were sponsored, why not have them send the graphics directly? however, i do have most of my "sponsors" decals on my car. the local shops, i end up having my graphics guy do for me. they don't have decals themselves.
