What is the name of your state? TN

I have a small business in the field of print media which includes custom made vinyl vehicle graphics. Lately there has been a trend in my town of people decorating their cars in various product themes. They will come to me and ask me to recreate logos for major brand names to apply to their vehicles. I have turned down every single one because I assume this is copyright infringement.

My problem is once I turn down a client, they will go to another shop and have it made there! I have scoured the internet to find how this could possibly be legal, but I just can't find anything relating to my field. Am I missing out on money by turning down these orders?

Trademark, not copyright.

It's up to the company who's logo it is to push the matter. Don't think they won't many times.
Even Bill Waterson will come after you for having Calvin piss on things.
