Default a very eventful trip

went to The Wheel Supply (TWS) in socal and i gotta say tht was a pretty eventful trip... and here's why..

1. as soon as i got there, this dude in a S430 with 19" brabus rims kept looking at my car... even went around my car looking at wat i've done to it... finally introduced himself, and he turned out to the president/CEO of JP Aerodynamics, makers of the JP bodykits.... anyways, we got into a chat and said tht he'll give me a partial sponsorship for my car... i get a kit for free, but i have to ditch the xenon kit and paint the JP kit...he also wanted me to put my car into all the carshows the company is attending, and he will pay for the registration fee.. well, i dunno if i want to get rid of the xenon kit yet, but sure is something to think abt...

2. 2 youngs guys were also staring at my car... they looked familiar, so i asked them if i've seen them b4.. turned out they were my students in a class i was TAing for

sorry for the long post... just wanted to share

One time I was at Disneyland, and I saw a guy wearing a Volk tshirt. I had just gotten my rims, so I asked him where he got it..it was badass. He goes "Oh, I'm sponsored...they gave it to me." Bastard.

So how does that work? They give you a kit, you have to get it painted then attend all these shows they want you to?
