Mr Motivator Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 It'll go back down when you tell them you have locking wheel nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munkee Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Tell them, my brother had side skirts put on his car and had a crash a few weeks later. Insurace company didnt pay out due to "modifications" being made to the car. If you dont declare stuff it pretty much makes your insurance pointless.

deagledaddy Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Depends who your with and if you already have the poilcy with them. Some companies wouldn't insure me as m car was modded. Other companies, such as CIS as said above, didn't care what i did as long as it wasn't performance mods. Bucky, if you kill someone in your modded car the insurance company could say they not gonna pay out.... meaning a serious problem when paying court fees and compensation to the family of peple involved (touch wood that wil never happen to anyone, but you don't know). Basicly waht i'm saying is the insurance is needed mainly to be sure you can pay other people off. Thats when the company might have issues....
