He is a member of the club Mx-3 of Quebec.<P>He gave us that link to go see his car pictures: <A HREF="http://groups.msn.com/mx3racers/shoebox.msnw" TARGET=_blank>http://groups.msn.com/mx3racers/shoebox.msnw</A> <P>He also posted the following: sa se peut mec que tai trouver des photo de ma toto ou peut etre celle de barry clark , un mek des state qui en a une semblable a la mienne, coter exterieur je parle. Pour ce qui est de la gsr , elle nest pas encore Gsr , mais elle va la devenir au courant de lhiver.<P>English: It's possible that you found pictures of my car or Barry Clark's car, a guy from the states that has a car that looks like mine on the outside. She is still not a GSR but she will become one this winter.<P>Read this if you want the full thread: <A HREF="http://www.mx3quebec.com/forum/viewtopi ... highlight=" TARGET=_blank>http://www.mx3quebec.com/forum/viewtopi ... hlight=</A>

His fog lights are almost identical, but I customa made some brackets for mine, his doesnt look like mine are. Even his side markers and decals are the same as mine. Ive since pulled off my taillight covers and my rear mazdaspeed decal, but his is the same mine used to be. Im kinda flattered, but where is my originality?

You may be flattered a little that they though your was good enough to copy but in reality its probably more upsetting because everyone wants their car to be original and different than the rest.<P>Sure it maybe harder to be original in an mx-3 because parts and body kits are limited as opposed to the wide variety of Honda parts however every single MX-3 I have seen over the last couple years is original in its own way.<P>This however looks almost like an exact copy, at first I thought they just stold your pictures.<P> Image Down for that copy-cat.

I am flattered, but there goes my originality. I have purchased a GTR wing, and I may be making a custom bumper for my car. Who knows, but I deffinatley have to change something. Even the side markers/decals are in the same exact place.<BR>I did send him an appology email for going off on him, but I cant be the one to blame, I cant read french.
