Three starting points. Every build still gets reviewed.
These tiers help customers understand where their vehicle may fit. Final eligibility, pricing, deductible, and covered parts depend on the actual vehicle, parts list, documentation, mileage, claim history, and risk review.
Street Tier
For daily-driven enthusiast vehicles with basic upgrades and clean documentation.
Common examples
- - Wheels and tires
- - Suspension refresh or mild lowering
- - Intake and exhaust
- - Basic audio or lighting
- - Appearance upgrades
Best for customers who want protection without turning the car into a high-risk build.
Street+ Tier
For vehicles with more meaningful performance, appearance, audio, or drivability upgrades that still maintain street use.
Common examples
- - Coilovers or air suspension
- - Brake upgrades
- - ECU tune
- - Larger audio systems
- - Moderate performance packages
Best for customers with more money in the build and stronger documentation.
Apex Build Tier
For higher-value, higher-complexity, or heavily modified vehicles reviewed case by case.
Common examples
- - Turbo or supercharger kits
- - Engine or transmission upgrades
- - Widebody or custom body work
- - High-end audio/interior
- - Complex multi-system builds
Best for serious enthusiasts who need a custom review instead of a generic option.

Apex Build review
Salvage and rebuilt title review
Salvage and rebuilt vehicles may still apply, but they should not be priced like clean-title vehicles. They may require stricter documentation, inspection, a higher deductible, and a higher premium.
Possible extra requirements
- - Photos and repair history
- - Current mileage and title documentation
- - Professional inspection or shop review
- - Higher deductible or surcharge
- - Specific exclusions for prior structural, electrical, or mechanical issues
