Do you guys have any knowledge or input for this particular website? I applied just for kicks. A couple days later I get an email:

Congratulations! You have been chosen for the Pimp Your Ride Sponsorship! Before we go into the details on your exciting new sponsorship we want to thank you and our sponsors for making this opportunity possible.
Without Dunlop, B&G Suspension, Tsunami, Blaupunkt USA, Optimal
Graphics Inc., Gila Window Tint and our other exclusive sponsors, this would
not be possible. If you are not familiar with these companies we suggest
that you visit their websites and learn more about the products you
will receive. Also, because you only filled out our fast app, our sponsors
have requested that you answer some additional questions about you and
your future car plans. For your convenience, I have set up a web page
for you. Please go here (<--link) and answer
the questions to the best of your ability. Please keep in mind; we have
the right to refuse your application for any reason. To ensure success,
please answer the questions appropriately, clearly and truthfully.
Please submit your answers as soon as possible. Once submitted, we will
contact you via email or phone within 24 hours.

In the meantime, please gather any photos of your vehicle as we may
require those at some point during the sponsorship period for before/after
press releases.

Sincerely,

Ragen St. Peter
'Pimp Your Ride' Campaign Manager
East Coast Division

So I click the link to add more info...further down I see this:

So what do you think...should I do it?

ummm I dk man but sure wtf why not, might worth it

Just because I'm skeptical and pessimistic it could be a scam.

well if it's by credit card u can show that it's scam and get money back by fraud but if u pay cash or M.O ur screwed

I know for a fact it isnt a scam. At least three people in my car club (CCC) have done it...they all got the same exact sponsors though

What did they get?

sweet dood hopefully that shit is still up when I turn 18

I like to keep things real w/o sponsors.

yup

i used to have that until i fucked up my engine the second time. i had my shit but them i got rid of everything after that and even though i still have the sponsorship i don't use it i have not used it since march ish and i have others and everything but i just don't use though i will use it again once the car gets runnig. Plus i had various sponsors but it was just too much shit on my car and more than the alternator and battrery could handle even with two capacitors. but they are worth it if you go by what they say.

SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM! don't do it or you will regret it!!

I don't think you shoud ever have to pay to become sponcered... most companies will come to you...

alright...i just made a thread specific to getting sponsored. PLEASE read it.

agreed.

false. read the tutorial i just posted.

my 2 came to me... but I am probly in the minority...

more than likely it's awesome you were recruited, though.

eh once I'm done with my car hopefully I'll be

A serious sponsor won't need your credit card number or an 89$ *setup* charge, if they want to sponsor you, trust me, they'll let you know directly...

This almost sounds like a thing where you pay to get access to a site and get parts at a discounted price...

it's proven to be a scam, teevee.

Even better Nice sticky too btw, good info to have

not a problem. like i said in that post, i'd rather save people some money and aggravation.

Thank you very much <tucking credit card back into wallet>

not a problem. go check out the other link i posted, and try that approach. that way costs a lot less money

the weird thing is that i never paid a cent for anything! i don't even know how the hell i got shit but i did, i got rid of everything about two weeks after my car gave out.i used that money to buy my second engine bu ti lew that one as well.
