Sue. Just kidding. I hope you get some sort of payment out of this, though. They should have asked.

If you get nothing out of them, at least you know that this particular company has decided that your car is the best of its kind!!!

Its a violation of your personal rights(privacy I think) to use something of yours in a magazine without your permission. Just ask any lawyer... they should give you some kind of reparations... if not there are plenty of Liars I mean lawyers waiting to make money of an easy case like this

To be honest, I cannot see you getting any money out of this at all. There are lots of people who would want to be where you are. I do know that on public property you can take pictures of anything, whether or not you can use them to sell something... yea.
I wouldn't bother getting a lawyer, but I would call up import trendz or whatever, and ask immediately to speak to the editor or whatever, and then ask that your name be put in there. That's the most I think you'd get. |

I'm not asking for money and I'm not about to sue the company. It's really not all that important, I already have a kit so it's even less of a big deal. I just figure if they want my car to help them out, they need to return the favor. If they want to sponsor me and I advertise for them, then everyone's happy. Thanks for ALL the help, there's no community like the 6th generation Celica community!
