That shop is pretty stand up, sent them an e-mail asking for removal and I was pleasantly surprised by their reply.

Hello. Sorry for the misunderstanding about the picture of your car. I posted that on our site last year when we first became a dealer for them, and that picture came up when I did a Google search for "Varrstoen". I will be happy to remove the pic from my website as soon as possible. Again, sorry for the misunderstanding...it is pretty hard to tell the Volks from Varrstoens, especially when they dont't have the VOLK stickers on them.

Well what did you expect when you destroyed the wheels by painting them that horrendous color. I too would've thought they were reps in that finish. Lots of people some on here by the reps and put a insane color on them.

You do realize Rays offers these wheels in a plethora of "horrendous" colors?

Considering you rock Rota's, installed fog lights on your ings+1 front bumper, etc... I think its funny you called my wheels horrendous.

Same thing happened to me at the local hang outs here in Miami... My TE37's don't have stickers on them and the idiot swore they were Varr's.
