Which are legal modifications?
1. Color change
Changing the color is the most intuitive modification. Now you only need to register at the DMV within 10 days after changing the color, but remember that the red for fire protection, the yellow for engineering rescue and the upper white and lower blue for national administrative law enforcement are the three colors of the country. Special color, ordinary private car can not be changed.
2. Appearance stickers
Generally, a small sticker on the rear of the car does not need to be registered, and the body pull flower, film, etc. are also legal modifications. However, if more than 30% of the vehicle's spraying, sticking logo or body advertisement exceeds the safety limit, it must go to the relevant department for approval. If the local does not approve, it will be required to restore the original state.
3. Install front and rear anti-collision devices
The installation of front and rear anti-collision devices on small and micro passenger vehicles can be exempted from the registration of changes. As for the windshield, water tank, tool box, spare tire rack, etc. on the freight vehicle, it is also legal. But be careful not to block the number plate and interfere with driving.
4. Install interior
The interior generally does not affect the vehicle itself and does not need to be reviewed and registered. And there are a wide variety of interiors. For example, if you don't like the original floor mats, you can replace them with popular full TPE floor mats. At the same time, adding a navigation, reversing radar and other internal functions are also within the allowable range.
Which are illegal modifications?
1. Widen tires, intake system, exhaust system
Tire specifications, modified intake systems, and exhaust systems are all items that are not allowed to be changed by the state. Although the policy has been relaxed in recent years, the above modification of the car in use may change the engine power and affect the driving safety.
2. Raise/lower the chassis
The chassis modification directly affects the driving safety of the car itself, and the suspension modification must also ensure the same height as the original car. These directly affect the body structure and cannot pass the annual inspection in China.
