Who wants to sponsor my car?

I feel awkward making this thread. But what the hell.

I really don’t have any modification ideas on my mind. But here is what I think I can offer to those who want to sponsor me…

*Our company has many contacts in various news papers and magazines. So I can have them review the car and write couple articles about it.

*a branch in our company is specialized in doing work similar to this

so I could have my sponsor’s name and contacts on my car (with its mods). It will be like a moving advertisement.

Plus I do a lot of driving and my car will probably be seen a lot.


I’m serious btw.

I think you'd have better luck calling different companies and asking them yourself.

It's def not going to work here.

Seriously, especially with the condition that you've claimed your car to be in... Yeah, people who've read your posts will totally go for it.

Besides, most of the companies are in the US or Canada. From your posts, grammar, and car, it sounds like you're in some part of asia where the effect of an american sponsorship will be negligible.

Sure I'll sponsor you, my company's name is DumbAss and we make custom Fuzzy-Dive for your rear view mirror, how bout a free dice and a big Dumbass windshield sticker sounds to you?

Really , nobody will want to sponsor a car driven by a kid that can't take good care of it, come on, I have never seen a 3 year old Benz with faded paint and 20,000 miles past service A

why? The market over here is starving for Benz mods. And if we’re talking about Kleemann or say Rentech then its still a good potential market for them.

1)I do take good care of my car. Except I don’t treat it like a living being. Which seems many people in here do :p
2)I’m not a kid, I’m 23 years old. Well… unless you’re 60 then that’s okay 
3)Faded paint? I asked around, and there is nothing I can do about it. The heat causes it. And all cars around here are like that.
4)And lastly, it wasn’t 20K miles past service A. it was 20,000 kilos (12K miles) past service B. and you should know I already did half of service B at A (spark plugs, hoses, something about cleaning the exhaust system…etc meaning I probably took better care of my car than you!!)
And by the way, I wasn’t talking about stickers. I was talking about something similar to this:


got what I mean? One of our company’s branches make those stuff for cars *is expecting some jokes about the taxi*

Ask yourself this, What does a company get out of using your car that is not a new style model? Sponsers want their products marketed by new cars or cars that the owners have started on and show potential.

I agree stupid post with BS information should die...... But we as people don't always kill them due to our stupidity? We let your post live when you said there are no 6 speeds available on the westcoat....... Because you took the word of the salesman... I did not want to say anything since you did not seem to want my help even after I pm'd you that Walters had one I think you might be interested in and it could be had for $1559 under invoice. Plus there were 5 others local...... Thats why I asked about the Walters plate..

they'll be advertising for their whole products. not just their C coupe mods.

I think sponsers want to advertise their products to sell what they have and gain profit. A new car or an old car... it shouldn't matter as long its gonna lead to good advertisment... and thats what I can offer.
