Son of a B!tch!
That's my roadster!

John Baker I do believe there is some legal precedence, Winchell Vs. Mahoney, right?!



It's on their T-shirt too! The Humanity!

EDIT: I don't think their is legal precedent (at least not from me) It appears to be an image they pilfered from Speedhunters, albeit flipped like so:


I mean, shouldn't I at least get some free freakin' Coco Mats?

You should after all the free advertising you just gave them☺

Yeah, it could be complicated. They would likely say you gave away your rights to the image, but I’d come back with the fact That the “release” never contemplated someone turning a buck on a product that features your car. They would also say you’re not the injured party, but whoever owns the picture.

However, If I was you I’d confront them, tell them “how dare you!”, then offer to release its use for some mats.

You really should file for 10% of every sale ad that features your car as the "you can build this" photo.. I mean, i know most of those dont sell for much, but it could probably buy dinner a couple times a year..

I work with a museum. Warner Bros paid us $800 to license a couple of photos for set dressing for a really bad movie. I watched the movie and they never even used them. Too bad, it would have been the best part.

I followed advice from a few members here and contacted Coco Mats. They have been very nice to work with so far.

Agreed!

Just received my Coco Mats. I had altered the pattern to my satisfaction. Did not want the mats to overwhelm the interior, so I went with the nylon material. The color goes very well with my interior. They look great! Pat
