but i've just done some minor mods to my car
back box, induction kit, smoked rearlights and debadged
and my insurance is due in six weeks time
is it worth me telling my current insurers that i've made these changes
guessing most of u r going to say yes but just wanna check

yes your premium will probs go up

unless for example you have sport 14' alloys...no probs there as they are standard equipment

- 30 irmscher or eibach springs are oe/gm parts so you could blag them

and as for the induction i would de ristrict your airbox...

the zosrt you will def get a higher premium unless its a backbox only and not a performance mod
