I'd ask for about 1/2 a dozen of them strut bars for further testing to see if you want to allow them to use an image of your car.

Afterall, if they are a crap product, they could be defaming the character of your car 8)

Tell 'em you want 50 of the strut bars or you are going to sue for plagerisum(sp?). They are illegally using the image of your car, and, technically, you can shut down the auction on ebay, I have done it to others that have stolen pics of amps I was selling on ebay, I don't think I got the link any more, but, I was clearing out some crossfire bmf 1000d amps(6 of them), someone took my pic and used it, then, I got ahold of ebay, and, their auction was shut down, they still have to pay the fees even though it is shut down.

There could have been a stipulation with one of the sponsors(from the prev owner) to allow pics or something, but, either way, umdivx is a pretty passive guy, I think he would just go roflz and move along, but, me, on the other hand... :twisted:

I emailed them and asked whos pimp car the grey one was....I knows whos it is...I'd like to know what kit that is on the white car, I think it looks sharp, minus the scoop and spoiler, as long as the rear is not a box plow.

The pic is from the Redline Tuning web page from the car at SEMA when I owned it....not sure what Josh can do regarding them usuing it since he didnt own it at the time... but I have forwarded this to Redline as it has their logo in the upper left.

Why is this a problem? That is cool. I would be happy if people where using pics of my car on the Internet.
