My insurance will only allow me to have 3 modifications.

The car already has lowered suspension (spax rsx kit).

1.Do i put on alloy wheels (this will count as two as they are wider than the steelies ) That will be all 3 gone.

2.retrim the interior and keep my induction kit and just stick it out with wheel trims for a year.

Or any other ideas that anyone has. ?????

problem is they have quoted me £958 in my name with 3 mods (bearing in mind i am 17). Most other insurers won't even quote or they come up with riduculous prices over £1500.

i'm with norwich union and the alloys counted as one modification cos they only asked me if they were maufacter(sp) standard alloys and whether they had lockin nuts on them. Mine is £1360 with pass plus on a 98 1.0 at 17
