I think this topic is kinda ironic! If any of you are auto buffs then this is nothing new to you!! A few years ago we where working on the girls car and we decided that we wanted a "Pontiac Diamond" for the back window of her 92 Grand Am. "Hey No Problem!!" So I went to a car shop at the local mall. After all thats where I got them for my 95 Beretta, and all my cars before. So I stroll in start to chat with a long time employee that I known for awhile. Then after looking around I grew nervious because I'm not finding any GM logos on the wall where they ALWAYS WHERE. So I asked "What happened to all the GM logos?" The response whent something like this....An employee was a a swap meet(SOUND FAMILAIR?) and brought some extra CHEVY logos(BOW TIES) with him. He was approched by a GM representitive that was strolling the grounds. The guy told us that we had to stop SELLING & DESTROY all NON GN approved parafinila, or they would sue our A-- off.....so this is the reason I can't sell you any gm logos except for those (and they pointed to the rack behind me). IGG that cheap .. NO THANKS so I reluctantly left. I found a sticker store that custom made them but it cost me $20 more then what the car shop used to ask for it!! Now if you still are lost on where this is going...Trademark enforcement is nothing new. ALL auto makers enforce it albit mostly for $. If some one slaped on a MOPAR logo on a engine and the people who bought it where not happy then Chrysler gets the bad rap!! Same thing for UP. Ive seen some pretty great replicas of their Engines and cars....also alot of realy sad looking ones too!!! Remember Cover your own .....well if you dont know re read this post!! <br />Thanks Icemanmike-Milwaukee
