Just want an opinion to see if I am being totally ripped off or not

I am just over 2months into my policy and paid £1020 Fully Comp

I want to put 17's on my car, colour code it, and put an aftermarket grille on my 2002 SXi

Tesco want an extra £225.75 for this

If I want to add a full cat back system, and induction kit, they want £344.44 in total

Am I being ripped off???

Any comment welcome
