of course you should. if you dont, your cover is invalid
you can probably get away with not insuring things like a gearknob, stuff like that, but anything major (wheels, suspension, exhaust, brakes, bodywork) you NEED to declare it.

Depends what mods - some place will allow body mods but no engine tuning etc.
Most place will add a bit extra for things like air filter, exhaust, lowering etc but they will insure you.

CIS insured me on my modified Corsa for no extra cost (non performance mods only... although they knew of the exhaust and induction kit )
Direct Line won't insure me until I'm 25 if I modify the Astra.

Ive declared all my mods. I reckon I'd pay about £800 less if it was standard, that would also be fully comp instead of fire and theft.
yes, you should declare everything.
