I was browsing around for body parts to complete my body kit today when I came across this link for Tsunami body parts on sale

http://www.rushkits.com/-strse-8826/...FUw3OAod3WE8Fw

Thats the picture of MY CAR the very first day I picked it up from the body shop after having the Tsunami bumper and Veilside hood put on! Im flattered, but at the same time I feel a little... violated? Dont they have to ask permission to use a pic of my car on their website? Maybe I could lobby for free parts for helping them advertise?

Anyways, thought this was funny. Its not every day I go browsing for RX8 parts and come across a pic of my car!

 

haha.. thats hmm odd. Definatly shoot them a Email saying you didnt give permission about using your car for promotional purpose's. If all else maybe ask for some kinda sponsor ship with a discount on any parts you buy lol..

 

well its quite common. my cars on fatboysgarage site and extreme dimensions, ebay. etc etc. if you look at that site you even can see mikeb's car. its always like that. im not sure wut people did. but i asked them to take it off and they did but yea. haha its up to you i guess

 

my car is on rx8strakes.com and I think it is fine by me....

 

i wouldn't even ask for sponsorship, discount, or whatnot. it's just a picture. they'll drop yours and find another.

 

Yea but asking couldnt hurt
Dont get me wrong, Im not pissed off or anything, just suprised

 

Yeah. Definitely mention it. That's not cool. Maybe if Tsunami featured it but not a dealer...

Love that nose by the way. Definitely top 3 in my book.

Time

 

if they dont have permission have them take it down....aint nuffin free in da werld!

 

^^^ true
ya man go for it whats the worst you get a pic off their site that you may not b the most comfortable with anyways. ask them for the sides or rear that you needed. you said you wanted to get those so as not to be to front heavy
i also remember you saying at one point that you wanted a different brand or style. but IF THEY GIVE YOU FREE OR DISCOUNT GO FOR IT. this is as close as you come to getting what you want for cheaper.

 

IDK, its kinda cool being the picture on the #1 hit for googling "Rx8 Body kit"
But I emailed them saying that I thought it was unprofessional to use a picture of someones car w.o. asking, and that provided they ask my permission they can keep the pic up. I also offered to retake the pic with a rushkits.com sticker on my windshield in exchange for some goods! We'll see what they say.

 

It's pritty awesome that there using a picture of your car, but they definately should have asked you first.

 

score man!!! thats how to play it!!

 

what the hell. look at all those low prices. are they even reliable?

 

are they selling knock off kits or the real deal?
yeah, those prices are way too low.

-hS

 

they must be fake, they made them in a rush

 

Seeing that they also have pretty nice "additional photos", don't think they care to do much for you. The best you gonna get is them remove pic from the site.

At least u can tell ppl, "that's my car on their page!"
