Interesting that you cannot get insured for a (new) mod'd car - at least not for exorbitant rates.
I could't get State Farm to write an "accessories rider" on my '05 Corvette. When it got stolen (in '08), I stood firm and wouldn't accept the $19K they offered me - and I sent them 100+ pages of invoices on my mods. I ended up settling for $30K. WAY LESS than I had into it - but WAY MORE than their initial settlement offer.
FUNNIER STILL - I have $30K in additional coverage on my '10 Harley V-Rod. I pay an additional $394 a year for it. But with $30K IN MODS on the bike (not counting 100's of hours of PERSONAL LABOR), it's worth it. Hell, my BST Carbon Fiber Wheels go for almost $5K.
Then again - motorcycles - HD's in PARTICULAR, do get thousands dumped into them in mods. Likewise for cars - but insurance companies LOATHE to give you a rider for mods, that they don't want you to have on your car in the first place.
What company, based on statistical risk of accident/loss - wants US riding around with another 100HP?
Huh?
