Someone move this to off topic.

I wouldn't want to get my car sponsored if I have to rock 35,000 stickers. I'll take the free parts any day though.

What did they offer you in the way of sponsorship? Based on your other posts, you need some work on your car still. Hell, you've gotten a quote for $5000 in body repair and paint. Have they seen the car? A lot of sponsorships are scams, they want you to pay them some cash for "fees" or something, you get some stickers and that's the end of your deal.

And there seems to be a movement on the site to stop the style of writing you're using to post: "wat" "dey" "guyz" "skool". If you continue, people will start flaming about it. It isn't any harder to spell things correctly than it is to spell them intentionally wrong.

39, and if you were reading as many posts as I am around here, you'd have seen it. It's not hating at all. It makes it easier for those of us who are trying to help diagnose problems and give advice. I understand what's being said in these posts, but if you'd been reading around the site, you'd see that these type of posts are getting flamed. A lot of the OG's are tired of trying to decipher poorly spelled, un-punctuated posts with horrible grammar. It's one thing if someone actually can't spell or really does have an I.Q. below 100, but 90% of the time it's intentionally done to appear cool or street. All it really does is make the person doing it look... uneducated.

I'm really not hating. Just trying to help the OP keep from getting burned.

I agree with you 100% VP, mexican you have know idea what hating obviously is. Seriously what kind of question is this...hmm sponsorship or skool. OBVIOUSLY more skool is needed, and its apparent by his spelling skills. Who in there right mind would let someone go out and talk about there krew with such horrible spelling and ebonics. Its also been now said that he obviously needs more work done to the car, so who sponsors a beater? Last I checked not many.

Good Luck to you and your car, but stay in school and drop the sponsorship idea.

guys seriously, the kid obviously just wants some advise about sponsorships and some help on his decisions on how to balance everything out. So what he uses ebonical grammer in order to shorten his wording. Many people do it all the time and a good 93% of those people are highly educated and just talk that way because its easier for them (for some reason).

Breathe,
dont worry about being sponsored yet bro you have plenty of time for that.... work on your car little by little and watch it come together by your own time,blood, sweat, and tears and you'll appreciate the car so much more than if its getting payed to be worked on by other means...

No, they talk like that because they think it makes them "interwebz kool". I do appreciate your 93% statistic though! lol
This kid has serious work to do to his ride - he has an estimate for $5000 in bodywork and paint. I can buy a PRISTINE cb7 for less. He asked for help. I offered him some. This is a bogus sponsorship offer. No one legitimately sponsors a car that needs $5000 in body and paint work.

yeah thats true.... i think it may be those "sponsorship" adds on myspace that pop up once and a while.....

Those "Get Sponsored" programs DO work, but only when you play their game... it's not a matter of signing up and getting free stuff.
