Terrible news, hopefully you get sorted out quickly.

Not much worse than being without your car.

    Sounds like a plan. It's a shame that you lose all the mods you worked on, unless the insurance will pay out extra for those?

    I agree, unless they're really strict about that sort of thing, I don't know. You'd think it would make more sense to let you take off any parts you can sell, reusing is always better than recycling.
