Default Carsponsor.com?

So I've begun my search for sponsorships and stumbled across carsponsor.com. I filled out the application and low and behold in my email as expected this morning I have multiple sponsor offers if I'm willing to become a paying member of the corporation. Which I'm not against you have to pay to play some times. But I'm an extremely skeptical guy so I'm reaching out to you guys to see if you have had any experience with this company? If you have how was it? Would you recommend them on certain parts not other etc. Also if you have experience with sponsorships I would mind that input either. I used to build hot rods and had access to my sponsors through friends, racetrack, business, etc true import scene is completely new to me.

In my younger years I had sponsors in sports, I never paid for anything. If a sponsor is asking you for money to promote their product, just smile and walk away.

I've never had any experience with them and a quick search of the web tells me I never will.

Thanks for the input. I thought there was a lot of over promise, but if people had worked with them previously an received 25% discounts and such I don't think it's that bad of a deal. I've noticed as of late there is not such thing as free parts sponsorship, but plenty of at cost sponsorships so I wasn't automatically turned off from it. That's why I was looking for contructive input and experience with them.

I tried it for ***** and giggles. 5% discount. I was able to get sponsorships myself with better discounts

I tried this.
I found most of them to be scams and the ones that work are UGH.
I rather approach each 1 on 1.

The ones that will listen, need proof you really got skills, good rep and material to produce views.

Eventually I became a fully sponsored drift professional, got to travel the country, eat and stays at hotel for free and got to drive r32, supra, rx7 and more.

Cheers

I've gotten a few sponsors for my previous STI that was a show winning car and even magazine features. Build a nice car, then start talking to certain companies to see if they're willing to work with you.

I wouldn't trust a website like that.

my sponsorship came out of the blue. At first I was skeptical, then new wheels kept showing up at my work =p.

Long story short, is they came to me because they liked the pictures I post of my car on social media.
