AlexM Imposter?????

[J Russ]

Now I'm a huge fan of AlexM's black A/C with those sexy red rims dropped to the floor, but I couldn't help but notice this on the Altima fan page on Facebook that I'm part of... does this look like yours Alex???? Didn't think so!!!!!

Looks P Shopped around the wheel wells for sure.

[downedzephyr]

Definitely an imposter. I'd recognize that picture/setup anyday. I just left a couple messages linking directly to the NICO threads that Alex had set up, as well as an image that bears an uncanny resemblance to "Trung's Coupe"

Alex: If you want the picture removed, just fill out this form. Make sure you include links to the original pictures of your car so that there isn't a shred of doubt that the picture was stolen and edited.

[alphapig]

LOL what a tard!

[downedzephyr]

Found another couple pictures the guy posted earlier and I called him out on those too:

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid ... 7297785815
Also found his facebook: Trung (Kevin) Tran. Maybe some of you coupe guys in Houston should invite him out to a meet so you can check out "his" car.

And Alex: Here's a screenshot in the event he takes it down and tries to deny anything.

2nd picture, looking good.

[DJ_B_Easy]

Alex if you really want to get into this dude and he doesnt take them down, enlist the help of Greg (AZHitman). I saw them pick apart guys in the gen chat more than once and the amount of info and clout they pull is a little frightening.

I added him and Im going to comment on his gf's pic and be like so is she photoshopped too? hahaha

Damn Alex's car looks so damn clean Im jealous he's doing exactly what I wish I could go back and do to my coupe haha

[Ranga14]

lol, I saw this the other day and it had me wondering!

[jasemofo]

Hey, that's me!

Lol, just so no one get's upset, yes that is Alex's build. But it is my car, with Alex's same setup. I have requested the picture to be removed, if all of you guy's are upset about the picture. I've actually ordered the same exhaust as Alex too, as I've talked to him a bit about it.

Just so there won't be any flaming, I apologize. BUT it's not photoshopped, but I won't deny it is Alex's build.

I reside in the houston area, if anyone want's to meet up and see my car. I no longer have the rims, but still have the same coils, which will be changed soon. I ordered new rim's already. But yea, I apologize for the misconception again!
Flame on!
Much respect to Alex's car, if I have defiled it in any way, by copying his build.

[AlexM.]

lol holy... how did I miss all of this. Jase / Trung, you're explaining yourself very wierdly or I'm just having a hard time understanding you. I don't know if this is a Photoshop (really looks like it but I don't want to assume) or if you also have VS - XX with same lug nuts same suspension, etc. Butttt:

IF THOSE ARE YOUR VS-XX:

Congrats. I don't approve of copying and running the same style as someone else. I don't know how you can feel really awesome about following exactly in someone's foot steps but at the end of the day, you're the one that parks the car.

IF THOSE ARE PHOTOSHOPPED VS-XX

I'm not mad but I feel disappointed and disrespected, especially if it's for some contest / company's album or whatever.

And I can't believe you didn't give one ounce of credit. I'm not looking for the publicity or to win the prize of whatever contest but it's more about the principle behind it.

Also: Either way, you aren't running the same suspension as me, guaranteed. My suspension is pretty custom. I am 100% sure you do not have the same build as me, not yet at least. Unless you went far out of your way to do it by reading my thread and copying everything to the exact letter.

This is crazy. I mean if he actually has that setup, good job I guess, but either way this is crazy. Time to sell wheels if he's actually running these lol...

Even if you had these for 1 day this is ridiculous. I tried to hard to do something different. Just be yourself man lol.

Thank's super DN!

[AlexM.]

How can you be on d2 coils when you were about to buy oilsink's springs?

[AlexM.]

Hey Nico,



I've been using the Top Speed Pro One Cat Back Exhaust for a couple weeks.

Quick question Alex, I know it's your car picture presented on the products page.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissan-A ... 5ad0fd068f

So the Nissan altima coupe top speed pro cat back for 08-09 will fit our 2010-12? I assume the only thing that is changed is our front fascia. Sorry I'm a Altima noobie.

If I were to purchase this as of now, I want burnt tips also... do I message them? or is it not an option and you were lucky to get them.

Thanks in advance

AND you're an "Altima Noobie"

[AlexM.]

Thanks brah!

I'll be sure to do that by like next week, I get my pay check

Oh btw, your tire pressure is blinking because of your current wheel setup?

And IF you've had wheels in the past you should know a thing or two about swapping TPMS. And I doubt you transferred over your TPMS to your VS because WORK requires adapters for those wheels to run TPMS I believe...

whoo, okay. Detective Alex is done for the night. Let's hear your alibi!

[AlexM.]

If only you guys could read all of the stuff he's saying. I think I can rest easy now. If this doesn't prove anything, I don't know what will. Go ahead and put it on Nissan's site, Stancenation, whatever. But this is unquestionable:

Front


Rear


1) Look at the ground in both pics. The tiled brick is in the same location on both under the tires / bumper. The stains on the concrete are in the exact same positions. Check out the black concrete stain near the front wheel, and the two black dots on the concrete near the rear wheel.

2) Location of the brake calipers with respect to the wheels on both cars

3) Direction of the VS symbols on center caps

4) The wheels are rotated in the exact same position. Check out the lug nuts. And he says they're muteki teal lugs lol.

I bet its just some guy trolling. I feel bad for even getting riled up. Whatever

Much respect to Alex's car, if I have defiled it in any way, by copying his build.

I call shenanigans. It may not be photoshopped, but probably MS-Painted. You left a sliver of his black fascia on the lower portion of your fascia. You left a gray dot on your rocker panel located near the middle-front of your door. All around the car has the expected picture focus, but then you have sharp edges on the lower part of the fascia, wheel wells, rocker panels and rear bumper. The shadows don't line up with the light source either. Plus the ground is exactly the same is both photos.

So all you did was place his wheels 'under' your car and tried to blend in where you pasted your car on his wheels. And guess what? I really don't care if you copied his build in real life or just did the ps just to do it. But trying to pass it off as real just seems retarded. And then saying you no longer have the rims when you get called out makes it even more lame.

[wade001]

Oh common boys! He's just one of those guys that wants to pretend his car is special . Since it's hard to fully disprove someone or always catch them so many people do it. Alex, copying is the sincerest form of flattery . why the heck would you sell your rims if someone else has them? u don't have to prove anything.

[downedzephyr]

Apologize all you want, but the proof is in the pudding (as Alex's detective work shows). Just quit lying about previously having a setup like that because you're caught red handed.

Copying is the sincerest form of flattery, but blatantly ripping off someone else's work and not giving them credit for it is a whole different story.

[wade001]

Very true, I was more just making fun of this kid then anything else. people like him really make me sick

[el_blacky06]

Wat a bunch of fail for this kid. I showed my GF of the pics, and she noticed right away that it was photoshoped. I'm not even sure why did he even create this in the first place, does he even own an altima coupe??

[DJ_B_Easy]

Location of lug nuts and wheel logo. Nice work Alex.

/thread

[QR25DE]

OMFG best thing to wake up to on a Sunday, hahahhahahahahh

[DJ_B_Easy]

I just linked this thread to the pic on FB. I cant believe other people were actually backing him up like that was a real photo. CLOWNS. TOYS. BITERS.

[J Russ]

I am so glad I could help out with the imposter-catching!!! This is the first thread that I've created that has got more than a few bites... I saw the pic on my facebook page, and immediately thought, this looks like Alex's!!! and sure enough, it was easy to tell that it was a fake. From what I remember as well, the wheels are custom painted too, right? theres a dead giveaway! It pisses me off cuz like a million people like that fake photo, when not a single person likes the 2 photos of my real baby! haha oh well

[AltyCoupe]

this is all so funny. I cant imagine why anyone would waste time photoshopping or MS painting a car then trying to lie about it.

And lets say if he "did" copy alexs "build"....whats the big deal? why would you get rid of your wheels just because someone bought them after you? esp when they look that good!
