Aftermarket upgrades and modifications

Standard valuations price a vehicle as the manufacturer built it, so aftermarket parts — wheels and tires, lift kits, audio, remote start, a camper shell — may be left out unless you document them. Whether they are covered depends on your policy. Here is what to check and document.

Frequently asked questions

Are aftermarket parts included in a total loss valuation?

Often not automatically. Whether and how they are covered depends on your policy; ask your insurer and send your documentation.

Does the free check look at upgrades?

It reads the equipment your report lists. The full report includes a checklist for adding equipment that was missing to your letter.
