Yeah keep in mind you don't get actual money. You get stuff for free or at cost from your sponsers.

Yes, I first checked them out at the Better Business Bureau before I signed up, but I think it's shady unless it takes a couple of months before you here anything back. I went ahead and changed bank acounts just to make sure, becuase after i did it, it didn't seem right.

yeah I know, they just want your credit card info off the bat for account setup. I just want to know if anyone has heard of this site.

Well the BBB didn't have anything negative on them and they've been established since 1993. There was also another website offering the same thing too.

Yeah someone I know just did this and was talkin to me about it. He got sponsered by decalkits.com. So he got $600 he can spend there using I think he said vouchers, and carsponserships.com billed him $89 for getting him this sponsership.

in this case it did. $89 and his sponser is a decal website. How many decals can you put on your car? $600 worth? Also was "sponsered" by houseofboom.com but he gets no money from them he only gets things "at cost".

Just wanted to point out if your car is already nice you seem to get better sponserships, like the HIN sponership got you free suspension tires wheels and other stuff.

One of my friends got a sponsorship form these guys and he got the exat same two companies to sponosr him. The decals were lame, and the house of boom stuff was all off brand stuff like Koss, Jensen, Pyle, and all the others that go along with that nasty croud. The audio stuff wasn't cheap either, not that I would put any of that stuff in my car even if it was free.

CUSTOMER: BUT I DON"T LIKE SCAM....

WAITRESS: how about eggs, eggs, bacon, eggs, eggs, sausage, eggs, and SCAM?
