What constitutes a clone?

I have also read that Joel Rosen (God bless him) registered his paint scheme designs as his property so I'd leave the Stinger scoop in body color.

He may have registered them but I really don't think anyone, including Joel, could stop someone from painting their car using this paint scheme. If you like it paint it the way you want.
Also in terms of using that hood probably 10-15 companies made that hood over the years and probably sold thousands of them. If you don't badge the car as a Motion car it will not be a clone. It will just be a nice Day 2 car. After all, the speed parts Joel used on his cars were just picked out of the speed equipment catalogs of the day.
Joel may have used a VFN hood at one time but I bet he mostly used A&A or Fastglas (now legendary)
