"Micro Image" -- causing heel clicks, one motor at a time.

Golddeenoh · 02-10-2013, 03:29 PM

^ boom, that just happened!

Yikes

All I will say is thank you Micro Image and thank you Golden Eagle for these!

DJYojimbo · 02-10-2013, 04:11 PM

Thank You Micro Image and Golden Eagle! Gotta start saving money, one part at a time :)

cali yaris · 02-10-2013, 04:42 PM

^ Awesome. I would like to report a certain company selling under MAP.

Just did a search and you're right, Garm. On the TBR website they're claiming to beat Micro Image's price. They're also using that same picture of the multiple manifolds on the board so it must belong to Golden Eagle.

^ It doesn't belong to GE. I took that picture at my shop of product IN STOCK.
Surely you recognize my pavement, it's the same background for many, many of my product photographs.

When I politely asked TBR not to use my product photograph, they replied "Fuck off" with no other comment. I saved the email, of course.

DJYojimbo · 02-10-2013, 06:36 PM

I'm buying these from Garm only!

cali yaris · 02-10-2013, 06:40 PM

Appreciate that very much.

Golddeenoh · 02-10-2013, 07:24 PM

as long as i get mine in red i'm down for one from MI, just waiting on the money first.

This is kinda suspect. That is in no way a G.E rep. The always introduce themselves by name from my experience.

xnamerxx · 02-10-2013, 11:31 PM

Well there's that and the fact that the intake their showing looks just like the one TBR was hawking a while ago.

I'm not sure why they used that as their product picture, it doesn't look particularly good with the welded up inlet tract.

Man, he just keeps up with the shitstorming. I should post the story of the crap he just pulled on my friend. Gotta love T B R and his crappy attempts to rip everyone off!

Now that you mention it, yes it does look familiar.

I just couldn't believe that anyone would actually swipe your pic and fraudulently use it for the false appearance of having those manifolds when they didn't.

I have written confirmation from Golden Eagle now that they did not make an account here, nor did they post over the weekend. (They were at a show/race event).

ToyBox Racing was impersonating them with a fraudulent account. Wow.

Mods, please clean up the thread.

ilikerice · 02-11-2013, 11:44 AM

makes me sick to my stomach.
