It may be similar, but I am sure a court would rule it is different enough to not be a reproduction.

That said, there is a legal copyright concern over the horned Toyota emblem in that it is a direct modification of said emblem and Toyota has stated that it does not allow such items.

If the guy producing them has been given written approval as he claims, then there is no harm in asking to see a copy of it. Stating he has it is one thing, actually providing a copy is another.

Since I am not a vendor, I will raise the in his claim, as everything I have read states Toyota would not allow this.

And this is not the same as an aftermarket item. Those can be produced and sold as long as the vendor isn't claiming it is an OEM Toyota product or that they have permission when they do not!
never did the guy claim its authentic, not sure where you got that from... and im not certain whether he has approval to make them or not but he does have a website and he must be selling them with no problems. because he's still doing business.

its not that serious if everyone is butt hurt about an emblem whether its oem or approved by toyota or whatever then just plain forget it.

I wasn't going to benefit out of these, i was just seeing if anyone else was interested or had any knowledge of them. matter of fact i'll enquire for myself i'll have the mods delete or close this thread. end of story
