I seriously doubt anyone would care if you used it though. | | | 03-31-2008, 04:54 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Malvern, PA Posts: 373 | i'm with jgrimm on this one. i doubt its copyrighted. **** promotion is promotion in my view. you're more likely to get in trouble from microsoft for defacing THEIR logo lol. __________________ 1997 TI Sport, Silver | | | 03-31-2008, 04:56 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: New Orleans Posts: 970 | haha thanks and thats sorta what i think, i figured id make sure though __________________ ^being rebuilt^ until then: daily car: 96' Blue DASC'd ti with koni coilovers slowly progressing... weekend car: 85 1/2' 944 Porsche no a/c, p/s, gutted cat, loud as hell exhaust, loud as hell sound system | | | 03-31-2008, 04:57 AM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Malvern, PA Posts: 373 | post pics when you're done __________________ 1997 TI Sport, Silver | | | 03-31-2008, 05:00 AM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Calgary/Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Posts: 379 | Yeah, I definately want to see the end result.

Also...while you got the 360 open you should install an intercooler in it! Haha jk 360's get so damn hot, they are like mini room heaters. | | | 03-31-2008, 05:23 AM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: New Orleans Posts: 970 | haha i thought about getting a watercooling system on the net while i had it open, i still might if i do i wont have to use hi-temp! lol maybe something like this: http://www.xoxide.com/koolance-kit-xb360bk-sys.html im definitely making it though, cuz im not paying 300$ just for that __________________ ^being rebuilt^ until then: daily car: 96' Blue DASC'd ti with koni coilovers slowly progressing... weekend car: 85 1/2' 944 Porsche no a/c, p/s, gutted cat, loud as hell exhaust, loud as hell sound system | | | 03-31-2008, 05:27 AM | #10 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Malvern, PA Posts: 373 | [lol. watercooling? seriously? do they make them for the 360 or is it just a modified PC water cooling system] edited.. dumb question, realized you posted a link to one lol. __________________ 1997 TI Sport, Silver | | | 03-31-2008, 06:57 AM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Calgary/Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Posts: 379 | I was actually joking before, I never actually thought they made water cooling things... I just thought they just made small cooling fans. That thing is freekin ridiculous!!! Practically as big and expensive as the 360 itself!! | | | 03-31-2008, 06:59 AM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Saint Paul, MN Posts: 3,244 | if yoou are not making money off the usage of the logo it should not be an issue. email steven. __________________ My Former Rides 1999 318ti Alpine White, Cali Roof, Dinan goodies 1996 318ti Hellrot California Edition | | | 03-31-2008, 11:25 AM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 9,356 | Technically it is protected, although I probably wouldn't have a leg to stand on in court. As long as people aren't making money or uses are not fitting, I have no problem with it. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti • 2003 MINI Cooper S • 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org | | | 03-31-2008, 10:07 PM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: New Orleans Posts: 970 | ok, thanks and yeah, im not looking to make a profit from it. i figured it would just be fun to do, and im on some xbox websites, so maybe some more ti owners will see. __________________ ^being rebuilt^ until then: daily car: 96' Blue DASC'd ti with koni coilovers slowly progressing... weekend car: 85 1/2' 944 Porsche no a/c, p/s, gutted cat, loud as hell exhaust, loud as hell sound system | | | 03-31-2008, 10:20 PM | #15 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | water cool that beast! hopefully the water will stay inside the tubes __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
