How do you go about getting modified parts covered? You just mention it to the sales guy when you are asking for a quote?

TougeHorseman/Casey, I'm thinking of selling my RYP AP1 bumper and throwing the AP2 one back on, there's no damage at all but the color isn't a 100% match, plus there's a broken tab on each side so it doesn't sit extremely flush, but it'll definitely be way less than a new bumper plus repaint lol. Hmu if you're interested.

That's a good point but it may not apply to my own car because my car is already a 160,000 abused theft salvaged vehicle with no original VIN stamped body panels because the car was stolen and stripped then rebuilt by Norman at N1 Concepts.

I think they were less concerned when making the adjustment to my policy about the used parts cost because it was not relevant until the moment I needed to file a claim.

glad you're not going to end up footing the bill or chasing the insurance companies around to get paid. just make sure your car is in good, structural shape. sounds like it's been through a lot.

How does this supplemental claim thing work?
I kinda understand why you would need one for the aftermarket modification stuff. But why would structural stuff not be part of the body work claim ? Or is all of this stuff invisible to you and all you need to do is drop off your car and pick it back up when it is all done?
