Joe!


Tell them that if they dont pay you atleast 500 dollars for the pictures you will cut there Effing heads off!

That is really funny though. You totally need to stick it to them. How good of a company are they if they cant even manage to get their own original pics of the products they sell.

sry we asians love to pirate **** lol. they are most likely the same seller with different names though. i know ebay has strict copyright rules, you should definitely contact them and let them know you mean business. unless you don't really mind them using your pix

I've already reported them. At least one seller (e.auto.bay) responded to the message I sent and apologized. He said he will take them down asap, as for now, they're still up

Any updated on these?

Apparently this happened to one of my friends. He didn't care enough to file any complains tho.

Ask each of them for a free lip-spoiler... THEN, mount them (temporairly) on your car. Snap some more pics. Post them in teh "ricer" forums (ummm... we STILL call them ricers, don't we? I been out of circulation for a long while) along with comments about how they increase your downforce and give you better traction/launches. Sit back, and wait for hondas, acuras, and, especially toyota corollas start showing up with mulit-lip-spoilers (to be known as the MLS) look!

MLS IS PIMP, YO!

Ricers? That's so 1998.

Things have changed quite a bit Jazz.
One that's worth mentioning: every +1 post count I have, each member (including you) will have to send me a dollar.

All 3 sellers took my pictures down, apparently their suppliers gave them the photos to use for ebay.
