Default Look...found a car pic of Rick from Status...

I was searching through Ebay and found a picture of Ricks Redline Z selling Luff wheels. The only problem is that a company called Gooddeal Products is selling them.....I hope this is not a REPOST and that Rick gave permission to use his picture! Take a look.

What the heck are they hiding by changing their name so much? Did you notice that Rick's picture has the Status building in the backround?! lol...

I almost bought my Axis wheels off that Wheels Direct place but they kept on telling me Axis did not make any silver on gun metal so I told them to " why don't you try sticking your head up your a$s see if it fits" in a Tony Montana voice.....LOL

^Yes I think we are all aware of this, but it does not decrease the principal value of a picture being used for marketing purposes on merchandise being sold as your own. Not only is company claiming their product is in the picture, but the picture is from a wheel distributor as well. Just not right!
