So as we know car modification has been a very popular thing in India since the beginning. Youth’s interest in car modification is increasing day by day. People get their vehicles modified in various ways like changing the car’s alloys, keeping the glass black, or installing a loud music system in the car. Many people also get the horn of their vehicle changed and many people are fond of stickers, like getting their names or surnames written on the vehicle.
Modifying a vehicle is the first choice of a car lover. Car modifications definitely improve the appearance or performance of the car in different aspects but we must keep in mind whether the modification is legal or not. A lot of people get heavy modifications done which is not legal according to the laws and regulations and because of this they often get challaned (Fined). A similar case came to light in Kaithal, Haryana, during a routine check, a vehicle was stopped, that too thinking it to be a Thar. But instead, it was a 19-year-old Bolero modified into Thar.
Due to illegal modifications in the vehicle like oversized alloys, very heavy lights, and changed horns, the police issued a challan of ₹ 23000 for modifications to the owner.

The youth bought the Bolero from the junk dealer and modified it into a Thar car/jeep. As per the traffic rules, all the vehicles and bikes that come from the agency are fitted with tires of a limited and prescribed size. If bigger tires are fitted, then such modification is illegal.
