Thumbs up Recent pics of my 99 spec FD, Fikses and BNRs

I had to snap some shots for my Haggerty Collector Car Insurance I am getting and they came out pretty good, so I figure I may as well share them with all of you

An interior shot I posted recently in the 3rd gen section. I really like the Nardi wheel, feels great and looks better in person than in pictures. Please refrain from making the obligatory Goose, Maverick, Iceman etc comments

I've been looking into getting this wheel, and I've been told it's a little smaller and a little closer to the driver than the stock wheel. Is that true? My legs hit the steering wheel on both sides and I'd like a wheel that's closer to me. By the way, the car looks fantastic.

Also, I noticed that the AST is an eyesore. I am going to remove it and repolish it, may even delete it altogether.

It is 10mm smaller in diameter. Not sure if it's closer or not. Thanks for the kudos .

Cool, as long as it's smaller in diameter, I can deal with it not being closer if it isn't. Thanks.

Basically since our cars are not old enough to claim it as a "collectors" car, you have to put it as an exotic.

I tried to be as realistic as i could with the application. Without lying and trying to give as much info as they want to hear. I put the miles i use for pleasure, work etc etc. Then i told them i will "probably" go and race it at the track. I guess they didnt like that part. But i couldnt lie. I couldnt just say no i will never race the car, then later on run the car and god forbid something happens, i dont know what the outcome would be.

Mind you i am getting this all through the phone. They then told me i should fax or email some recent pics of my car, basically all the sides that rich posted above. Engine bay, quarter shot, rear, side, etc. Then they told me i need to take a shot of the garage it will be enclosed in. I said i didnt have an enclosed garage, i have a huge *** driveway (about 60-80 feet in length) They said they wouldnt cover a car if it doesnt have a garage. I told them i have several security devices i use that i put when the car isnt in use. They said they need that garage.

So now im not sure if that particular rep was jerking my chain or these really are the rules people must comply with.

So now i dont know what to do. Should i wait a while and alter my application? They will def remember my information and think im lying and still reject me. This ******* sucks. But even though, their annual premium is not THAT much lower than what im paying for now. But every penny counts, especially since i hardly drive the car. I only put 2600 miles on it since 03/04. lol

One thing about Haggerty that I *don't* like at all----their lowest deductible for the 'tuner' program is a cool $1000, which sucks pretty badly.
