No, it's that fact that there is this claim that the guy has special permission from Toyota to make modified Toyota emblems. And people that have been around the forum for a while are calling B.S. on that fact. If someone wants to sell stuff on here, more power to them. But if one of the first things out of their mouth is something that is most likely a lie, well, they're not going to be very welcome here. I mean if the guy would lie about that, what else would he being willing to lie about.

I can't speak for everyone else here, but I'm going to take a wild guess that
no one here believes that Toyota is going to come over to their house with some laywers to sue them for having an "unauthorized" emblem on their Yaris. This is an issue about whether or not the claim that was set forth about his special permission is true.

I don't think anyone is under the impression that he does work for Toyota or that he produces OEM emblems for Toyota. (By the way, what's the address to his site?) I think everyone is basing this on the fact that it was mentioned that the guy claimed to have permission from Toyota to make his own emblems:

If we want to put this to rest, someone find a copy of his special permission slip from Toyota. But there's no reason to start getting up in arms about vendors that support the site.
Don't agree with them? Don't worry about it. They're not forcing anyone to buy their goods, nor are you forcing anyone to buy some devil-horn Toyota emblems. If people buy either one, great, someone makes a profit and someone purchases something they want. If people don't buy either one, well life will go one just as well.
