This is what i had to say to this man!! i let it all out!! we are all family here so i think what he did was fucked up!!!
"hey you stole that picture!!! and you know it!! that is a member of homemadeturbo.com's ride! why are you stealing his car pic to sell a body kit that is not even the one you're selling!?!? thats not right! did you ask for permission?!!? this is probably not the only mail you'll get from this ---- you did!! you fucked up! your kits arent even the one that is on his car but you used his picture! he is a friend of mine and if i was him i would persue legal action....you even put your ugly watermark on his pic. you are very disrespectful and i hope you get a kick in this ass for this!!! expect negative feedback!!!" ;) ;D ;D ;D

Subject: Using my photographs without my permission


> It has been brought to my attention by several people including my sponsor
that you are using my photographs to advertise your products. I also noticed
that the pictures were used right on ground dynamics homepage as well. I am
the owner of the sunfire and I did not give permission to use these photos
nor am I giving permission now. The body kit was not produced by ground
dynamics but was pieced together from andy's autosport and customized from
their design. That is simply misrepresentation along with copyright
infringement on my pictures. Regardless whether the pictures were posted
online or not just like any works the copyright need not be registered, I
took the photographs myself.
>
> I have also filed a complaint with eBay to remove the pictures from your
listing. I will also be contacting ground dynamics who I would imagine my
sponsor also contacted. If the pictures are not removed I will also contact
andysautosport and possibly take legal action if need be.

> Just for clarity the eBay auction number was 2439983174

Wow thats wierd. I couldn't tell what you were all upset about at first because I got to the links too late, and they already changed the pictures.

Re:Calling All Members! Someone's Using my car on ebay
 
another thing is, why is he saying that grounddynamics.com gave him permission!?!? thats fucked up of them to give permission knowing its not theirs!! that makes their company look bad!! thats not a good way to do business, you can tell they are probably not so honest :-\

Re:Calling All Members! Someone's Using my car on ebay
 
I've heard a lot of bad things about ground dynamics and this is not the first time they have done this.

The pics have yet to be removed from their homepage. To be honest its not Kevin (the ebay auctioner's) fault because he had no clue. Ground dynamics is using the photos to advertise their product its only natural he used them.

Trance if you look above and go to the ground dynamics homepage the pics are still up on his site...makes me wonder who the ebay auctioner ripped off now. I know I've seen that car before somewhere
