Hey guys. New member. My name is chad. While this is my first post here, i'm no stranger to car forums. I have been a member of several different car forums, and i am happy to say i have joined on here as well. While i do not own a mitsu, i'm eager to be a part of this board. Let me just say, that with the following post, i am merely testing the waters to gauge interest.

For those who frequest mainly dodge and ford websites, you may have reconized my username. It is the same.

What i am hoping to do here is to become a sponsor. What i do is under the name "Unique Coatings", have set up a business that does lens coating and specialty painting. My mainstay is in tinted tail lights. Without getting into a lot of detail, i use a liquid that is used to cover the lens and give the appearance of a black out lens. Do not get this confused with some products available commercially that are sprayed on (who's names will remain unsaid). I believe there is a huge difference in quality as well as appearance over anything you can purchase in a can.

While i mainly do tails, i also can coat side markers, third brakes, etc. I do not however do headlights, due to safety sake. I can say that i am honostly concerned with you and your cars safety, so i would never put any member in a position to be harmed due to my products. I have sold items to many many states, including california. I have never had issues with legality, and try to obide by all laws.

I also mentioned i do specialty painting. THis is often in conjuction with my lens coating services. For example, body matching trim colors.

Below are a few examples of items i have done for members on other boards. I hope you enjoy them. I would love any information on sponsorship, and who i would need to be put into contact with. Thanks guys, and i hope to hear from you soon

Great job but I thinks these Tick Heads out here in California would pull me over just to make sure my blood was red.

I'll look into it before I look you up I like a blacked out tail I been looking for somebody who does good work.

How much you charge to black out a stock tail on a 99 and how long does it take? And I can bring it in to ya, Yo send me a pvt msg Thx!

Out of respect for both yourself and other members, as well as administration on the board here, i dont think i can discuss pricing until i talk over sponsorship options.

Who do i need to get into contact with to find that information out?

Also, i think i can probably say this. Tinting for most items is usually around 60 -65 dollars plus shipping. often times i establish core programs, where i have pretinted lenses available for purchase. if there is enough demand here to justify a sponsorship, i will probably provide a core system. i have a few sets on order already for testing purposes, a set for a 3G eclipse, and a lancer.

I went ahead and figured i would take a chance with the Mitsu crowd.

i currently have on order 2 sets for a 3g Eclipse, and 2 sets for the Lancer. The lancer lenses are off of the OZ edition cars (like the ones above) but are targeted as an alternative lens for the EVO owners who do not like the Altezza look.

I will have pictures of all sets available whne they are ready.

As for being able to afford them, i think you will find they are much cheaper than you would expect.
