So, I got in a nasty multi-car pileup recently. My car was hit from behind, likely hard enough to total it. The tow yard has it until Monday, I will be picking it up and towing it to my employer's shop to avoid further storage fees. I have full coverage on it, but I was not cited and the car behind me was.
So here's where it gets sticky, the car is a 2012MY and has over 10K of mods on it. Most of the modifications, if not all, were unhurt in the collision. They were not declared with my insurance company, but my understanding is that should not matter as it will be on the other car's ins co.
I've been told I need to leave it completely as-is how it was at the time of the collision and others advise to start removing my parts as soon as I get the car back.
Who's right?
Will I ever get my mods money back without having to return the car to stock? I'm thinking if it gets totaled (hope so!) that I may have a very limited time frame to remove the parts, which unfortunately involves very internal engine components..
Any thoughts here? Thanks
heh- should say OT above not OY..
