Why is Car Modification Illegal?
1 Answers
Laws and regulations impose restrictions on car modifications. The vehicle model, engine model, and chassis number cannot be altered, and the body structure must not be compromised. If the car's color is changed, or the engine, body, or chassis is replaced, the vehicle must be inspected. Additionally, replacing the engine, body, or chassis requires submitting a valid motor vehicle safety inspection certificate. Decals or stickers must not cover more than 30% of the total body area. However, there are cases where car modifications are not illegal. Changing the car's color: It is permissible to change the car's color, but avoid using camouflage patterns, fire engine red, emergency vehicle yellow, or law enforcement's white-and-blue scheme. Most importantly, remember to complete the modification registration at the vehicle management office within ten days and obtain a new driving license. For those who wish to add decals, ensure the coverage does not exceed 30% of the car's body area. Important notes: In principle, modifications are allowed as long as they do not affect driving safety. However, seats cannot be removed, the interior structure must remain unchanged, and any structural features registered with the vehicle management office must not be altered without authorization.
