AR-Fiesta Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Hi, Was wondering if anyone is through Admiral and has mod's on their car ? Cause im looking to change my standard wheel trims to alloys, get windows tinted but I'm only 17 and the insurance is under my mum and im 2nd driver, and I know that the insurance will go up but I dont know how much by? Anyone got any thoughts on this Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 The only way to find out is to ring them and ask. I was with them last year and had no issues tinting my windows (I was 21) Also, I do hope your Mum drives the car more than you otherwise you're "fronting" which is insurance fraud and the policy should be in your name. Nasty consequences if you get caught [/friendly warning] ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AR-Fiesta Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 If I change the wheel trims to rims, roughly how much do you think the insurance will go up ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are too many variables to even hazard a guess - it will be anywhere from free > we won't even quote you. They're open till 10pm, give them a call now and ask for a quote if you were to do it.
