NFL does not 'give' permission to use its logos.
Other companies/entities are less prohibitive...
That's part of the equation. It also matters whether you created the logo 100% yourself, or if it was copied and pasted from somewhere else. As long as you created it from scratch, it can fall under the definition of "fan art". Fan art will usually be accepted as long as the copyright holder does not object.
It is my understanding that WC has been down the sports team road before and organizations were opposed to the use of their logos, leading us to no longer accept them. Until we hear something similar from the auto industry, fan art using car logos will probably not be rejected on that point alone. We try to be as open as possible until it becomes a liability for WinCustomize.

Anything 'less' will have feathers ruffled and/or you being ostracized within the community...
