Does modifying the front grille in 2021 require registration?
2 Answers
Modifying the front grille in 2021 does not require registration. Here are the extended details: 1. Adjustment to vehicle annual inspection: In 2020, modifying the front grille required registration, but in 2021, it is no longer necessary. The Ministry of Public Security has adjusted the vehicle annual inspection items, with the new regulations taking effect on January 1, 2021. 2. Addition to the annual inspection process: A "safety defect recall" step has been added to the online verification process. During online verification, if a vehicle has safety issues under recall, the staff will notify the owner about the recall status. 3. Clarification of the scope of appearance inspection: The new regulations clearly state that modifications to the front grille, wheels, roof racks, running boards, and bumpers are allowed. After the implementation of the 2021 regulations, modifications to the front grille within reasonable limits do not require registration, provided there are no changes to the vehicle logo or body color.
