    Hmm, so I just found out that Tanabe and SSR wheels are doing partial sponsorship program. I read it at couple of forums. I've seen the R&D stuff they made and wheels they have so this could be useful for us. I think it would be neat to have a company partially sponsor Prius. Rather than seeing the same old things on the roads or magazines...

    Anyways, here's the links:

    Thanks. Did you email either of the companies for sponsorship considerations? I think it would be a great program for someone who might want free parts and is okay with having these companies use their car. I knew an individual who had his Camry sponsored by Panasonic. He received some advanced audio head units, for the time, but they basically took his car to car shows every other week...

    I've tried... no harm done anyways. If I get denied then oh well. My friend from another forum did it too. Although I haven't heard from him lately. But yeah I think this is a great opportunity... not only to get cool stuff but getting to know these companies for future products.

    Has anyone else try this beside me... ? I was told that if accepted you'll be participating in photoshoots and what not. Also able to post on forums... maybe occasional meets and shows.

    I'll probably sign up. Like you said, no harm no foul plus hopefully some free stuff involved. Not sure how far I would take the whole "customization" thing though...

    Sorry... haven't even had time to submit my app yet. Between full time work and part time at school, I haven't had time to review all the questions they are asking to be submitted. Now that I'm done with school, I'll commit some time to it.

    Have you heard?
