check your policy - it may be that even tho your mods are covered, incase of accident/claim then standard parts are used to replace damaged items...

hence the shitty price!

I looked at HIC insurance document, but it don't say any thing about when the car being declared a total loss they only pay for the standard replacements?

Anyone got any more suggestions on what to do?

I phoned Highway insurance and the person i spoke to said that if i wanted to dispute offer amount, then i will have to get some prices of cars the same as mine (with the kit) and with the same sort of mileage?
