I think jimmy the tang can ask the seller to take down that image, or ask for compensation as part of the sales, and the seller can comply. That's assuming jimmy cares.

Just a thought.

or everyone can put their own signature on it. I've seen on ebay that the scammers tend to post other peoples' cars as their examples. just my $.02

Are you kidding?

You're talking about marketing to people who buy crap sight unseen off TV shopping channels on a daily basis.

You know all those stupid fvcking commercials you endure on TV? Somebody obviously believes them or they wouldn't spend ba-zillions developing the ads. Strange, but true.

As for fitment, you can buy the real deal, have it installed by some freaking mouth breather, and end up with an end result that looks worse than an inbred prom date. On the other hand, a person with skill and patience could take a replica and work it in such away as to minimize fitment issues.

You never know.

I don't think its illegal. All I can say is, if you don't want your pictures (any pictures) being used in a manner for which they were never intended, don't post 'em up. They may end up some place you don't want them.. LOL..

I'm sure the Stuntaz never dreamed they'd wind up being ever lasting examples of what NOT to do.
