My engine bay on eBay, wtf.

[Turbo 420a]

This was kind of a shock! Somebody's selling a turbo kit for the 420a and decided to use one of my pics. I guess I feel honored... but the kit is almost completely different.. hmmm. False advertising to the customer it looks like, but oh well, what are you going to do I guess... time to email the seller and see what the dilly-o is.

Yes, isn't this the third time this year that someone's hijacked a DSMtuners photo (that we know of)?

I think the fellow who found his car being sold -sorry, I've forgotten who that was- got the situation squared away.

bah. He better brake me off with a piece of that cash he makes then.

That was funny, i talked to the dude on AIM(the one who was using the pics) and he thought i was actually going to buy it, when i confronted him on why he had used someone elses pics he denied it

Ummm congratz? Free publicity- Did you e-mail them and tell them they owe you money for using your engine bay? Or a sponsorship deal of some sort?

haha, ya i saw this on ebay and thought i would share it with the rightful owner. It is a very pretty engine bay pic tho...i would use it too!

The funniest was when someone actually used someones car off of tuners and put in on their auction and "claimed" the rims were sold, and it wasnt lowered...that was great

I appreciate you giving me word about this though I just personally dont want my ride to be in any way involved with an entirely different kit - if he was selling a Star kit then it would be no big deal at all.

Got some newer and nicer pics coming soon, right after I get this roll of film developed

The memories of my blown engine still keep me awake at night! Naw, I've been working my arse off lately trying to save up for this rebuild. Now I got the funds. Time to buy the parts, woohoo!!
