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.

I saw that and the comapny is called wheels direct out of Arcadia but they changed the name......Rick has to see this not only his car was used but you can see his shop bay clearly in the picture....

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!
