But they can remove my car's pics right away...then the proof is gone?

I dont think screen shots are considered proof.

edit: email sent asking for some compensation

well you technically could get some kind of comp but you'll probably need a lawyer to look at the site, take screen shots, and then suprise them. so they dont have time to change.

id just ask them nicely to remove it.

Screen shots are proof, and you have us here as witnesses. Id call up my lawyer if they wont provide any compensation, and when I mean compensation, I dont mean a discount on something either.
