the whole things is probably copyright!

reminds me of when we wanted the toyota symbol on the t shirts for 4 and rotors. Printer insisted on getting permission from toyota. which of course was denied. They guy denying it told me if we hadn't asked and just done it there would have been no problems. but as we had asked, he had to say no :roll:

Probably wouldn't chase us due to the scale of the offense being small enough for them to shrug it off, but of course 'doing the right thing' shoots you in the foot.

Welcome to fscked up corporate legalese and copyright crap.

'free advertising' could be used a defence for anyone who throws another outfits brand on their gear.

Others call it counterfeiting.

Toyota would probably prefer to _sell_ you something. As it is I encourage caution when reproducing a corporations imagery, etc...

For the record 'TOYOTA' in that font is probably copyright.

Just sayin'


My Integra Type R stickers were proably copyright too, didn't stop the auto art shop having the image to make them.

that did cross my mind, but it is only the most common font in the world (arial bold) so I could just plead ignorance :lol:
all the 'turbo inside'/intel ripoff stickers are probably copyright too.
