Sue them.

sucks man. same thing happened to my car and some ebay auctions last year.

I even had some shop/guy in oregon rip off my whole site earlier this year. fortunately I was able to shut them down since the whole site is copyrighted.

Glenn,

If they give you any grief when you contact them you can tell them if they do not remove the images immediately, we'll censor their companies URL so that it cannot be linked on our forum.

Hmm.. this is interesting! LOL!
Glen, let me know the outcome on this. I heard about stealing photos all the time, but this one is the closest case.

You know what's sad, these pics were taken when RMMGS4's car was displayed at SEMA 2007. See the windshield, they took the liberty of smearing it in photoshop.

I'd be glad to. Did he confirm that he did not give them permission to use his car?

Ryan (or anyone else), do you know the source of the pictures? Was it something they took at the show or something that they lifted from somewhere else? Two different approaches / issues.

Glen will be out of commision in any Car related activies due to a family member in the hospital for care. Teeman and I had contacted him regarding ISBurger Run, and he had told us he will be out of commision for awhile regarding all car activities until his situation is straightened out. BippuPxr, you right that he would appreciate that if Dave took care of the issue for him, i will see if i can drop by his place or get in contact to double check the authenticy of his approval in using his vehicle. i'll update

update:
Glen got back to me and said he is still currently focusing on the family but he willl be back home and will be posting his formal reply this weekend.

His family member is still at the hospital, so when he comes back, lets all give him our best.
