Has anyone here ever been sponsered by a perfomance store?? Im going to but i wanted to make sure it is a good idea. They wont be paying me cash but they are going to give one upgrade(under $200) free, after that 40% off anything but turbo or s/c. the deal is i have to put their vinyl logo sticker on my car (3' by 3') What do you guys/girls think???

3 foot by 3 foot logo? :yuck: :eek:

I've never been sponsored, nor do I want to be unless I get the sponsorship benefits without having to put stickers on my car. ;)

not for cars, but for bikes. I forget all the details but it involved a jersey, a photoshoot and whenever possible getting people to buy shit from them. There was also insentives for placing in the top 10.

Right now i ride on a trek 5200 that I was given as a bonus from work, i had to put two sickers with our website on it.

as for the cars, just dont sign anything you can't walk away from in 4weeks. All those stickers for 40% aint worth it, if they give you labour do it. Stick to the sides of your car, dont touch the hood or anywhere else and get at least 40% of a turbo if they aren't willing to give you it for free.

no way in hell i'd do that. it would ruin what i like about cars.... clean. vinal will kill it. $200 to kill your car? then 40% off? thats really not that great. how long do you have to have their logo on? because if they rope you in, then you have to stick with the car. i kinda was sponsered by a shop. i hung out there, they hooke me up. no stickers, i got good deals on stuff though.
