1 Answers
Modified vehicles are subject to a penalty of 500 and are required to be restored to their original condition. Generally, no points are deducted if traffic regulations are not violated. Below is relevant information about modified vehicles: 1. Definition: Modifying the original factory model by replacing, adding, or removing parts, or altering its appearance. Reasonable and scientific vehicle modifications can enhance the safety and performance of the original vehicle. Vehicle modifications serve both as an expression of personal style and a means to improve driving performance and safety. 2. Purpose: (1) Enhancing comfort and safety: For example, audio systems and soundproofing. To improve the comfort and safety of the vehicle, modifications to the chassis are necessary, including shock absorbers, brake lines, rims, front strut bars, rear strut bars, front chassis braces, and rear chassis braces. (2) Improving power: Power system modifications are the most critical aspect of vehicle modification. To enhance vehicle power, components such as spark plugs, ignition wires, air filters, fuel savers, water-fuel catalysts, horsepower boosters, electronic voltage stabilizers, and exhaust systems need to be replaced. (3) Enhancing handling: For example, stabilizer bars, tires, and brakes. (4) Improving aesthetic appeal of interior and exterior: Interior modifications include floor mats, soundproofing films, and seat covers. Exterior modifications include bumpers, spoilers, body kits, custom paint jobs, and decals.
