Getting sponsored is not easy. There are tons of cars going for 1 spot if you’re lucky. As said 90% of the time you will not get a full sponsorship if anything it’s usually 30-50% off. Besides that the Z is out there for awhile so there are allot of major modded z's out there that are known and their owners are know.

You need to write a very good proposal. With current shots of the car (pro. shots).

You have to do allot of leg work to get your name out there, get names of who handles the sponsorships for that company you are looking at. You need to show proof of shows you go to and it has to be allot. You have to actually win at shows as well.

Not with my Z but when I had my civic I had a half sponsorship with NX, a partial with corbeau, a full with wingdoors, and half with bodykits.com. Was in one of the civic nation commercials. and it’s allot of work and allot of money.

good luck but im telling you be prepared for allot of rejections. and be prepared to try and try and try again.

Unless you have a nice resume with a couple other show cars you built , the chances are nill. Best you can ask for is some good hookups, but you need to know the right people for that.

Dude, my company has been looking for a Z with an intake and sub that we can show off at some meets. I'll sponsor you, but before you get the benefits of sponsorship we'll need one down payment of $5000, you know just to cover fees and such.

Sounds legit. Better jump on it before someone else with an intake and subs does.

Go to Carsponsorships. com I think you'll be eligible for one of the flame thrower kits they have for $50.

And there is basically nothing "free" about sponsorships. It takes alot of money, time, and creativity (not an intake and a sub). It's mostly the industry guys. When you get up to that level of car passion, your life is cars. And it's still not free.

Good luck though.

Getting your car sponsored is like being a female model. Just because you have **** and an *** doesn't mean there aren't 1000's of other's with the same **** and ***.

Do some nipping and tucking, shed a few pounds, make things bigger and better using aftermarket parts, and make sure you look unnaturally perfect every time you are seen in public.

Then you might have a snowball's chance in hell...

My life is sponsored by a shipping company. They send me checks every week and I use that money to get whatever I want. All I have to do is work for them about 30-40 hours a week.
