just cars seem to pay even if its got illegal mods, i know someone that came off the road on a corner with coil overs, ecu, external fuel pump shit, illegal turbo setup do i need to list the rest of the shit. it still got covered they gave him the agreed 10k i think it was and then sold his wreck.
would depend on how much they in for and circumstances of the crash. if you are completely at fault hit 3 ferrari's and did 100k of damage to gov property i dare say they will try to play the illegal mods card to get out of having to cover you. if you talking just a 8k write off + they can get some back for your wrecked car when they sell it. then its prob in their interest to pay for publicitys sake.
