This is a little disingenuous. It was a wreck, literally. It was a flooded car that the insurance had written off and sold as scrap. You'd never get manufacturer support for a BMW in the same circumstance either. Scrap is scrap.

That you can buy a car body and do a cool hack isn't a moral lesson about the business model attached to the car the part was taken from.
