Ontario Modified Car Insurance
Hey,
I keep hearing more and more stories of people in Ontario with modified cars having their insurance canceled.
I recently asked my insurance company about modified cars and they said any performance modifications are not allowed and I would have to switch insurnace companies and most likely pay double the premiums because of the modifications. Because of this, I have not done any performance modifications.
I have replaced the stereo and they have no problem with this. I have also replaced the wheels and my deductable went from $500 to $1000.
I am wondering what most people here do with their modified cars and insurance. Do you tell your insurance company or do you not tell them and
risk having your insurance canceled?

Unforetunetly, I dont think there is much you can do. Ive tried registering my car as a show car. Ive tried companys that deal strictly with show cars, but the car muct be over 20 years old to fit that class.
I made a small package of what my car looks like with my modifications (i left out the performance ones) and sent it to my insurance company. i also sent in a note agreeing that I will not receive any money if there is damagae to any of the parts I have put on the car. That seems to be working for me right now. Did i mention i also left the car under my mothers name
