Actually he has. Those pics are technically Mrsteve's intellectual property and cannot be used without his permission. I forget where I saw it, but it was in article in some magazine about music downloading and intellectual property rights.

It's not a big deal but since the pictures are technically my property it give me somewhat of a right to play around with the guy.

ya then you can see if hes a scammer. but i think you should report him to ebay. thats kinda foul of him to use your car without your concent. thats why people faces in crowds are censored out on shows like viva la bam or jackass. cause they didnt say it was cool for their face or anything about them to be on there right?

No laws of intellectual property have been breached
by this auction. You placed those photos on a public
forum without any copyright symbol present or
restrictions of use.I am in no way misrepresenting
this vehicle as my own, though I wish I had your
exhaust system. I am merely showing an example of how
this spoiler looks on the Acura CL. It is easier to
do this than taking the spoiler and mounting it on my
own 01 CL. Sorry if this offends you in any way but
this is in no way hurting you.

Thanks

i dont think the guy is worth the time......
i guess you could take it as a compliment considering he probably looked at many CL'S before choosing yours.
but if you are set on on getting him back why dont you take his email address and join some forum that will send him mail everytime he is on a thread(like acurazine does)...you could spend some time starting threads that indirectly say you know what he did and that he is a fucking dick for doing it......make him get loads and loads of emails until he gets pissed....
...this may sound gay, but what else could you realistly do if you want to get someone back that lives no where near you??i guess you could find out his address and fedex some dog shit to his house???

I'm sure he is a member if he got the pictures off the forum like he stated and he said he also owns a 2001 CL.

I would just annoy the hell out of the guy, see what he says. His statement is false btw.
