the usual comparison suspects are worth a punt, but I've been told (though can't confirm myself) that Performance Direct are decent about modded cars.

Also maybe worth giving Adrian Flux a call - you can PM someone on here (someone will know the member name and probably post it ahead of me Smile ) and get a quote?

Bandit used John Lewis for his Skyline - worth a shout.

Admiral will insure mods but they don't insure like for like, so when someone nicks your mods or you crash and break them, they will put standard manufacturer parts back on. Standard parts from Lexus/Toyota are really expensive which makes it way more likely your car would be an economical writeoff in the event of a claim.

Very good point there. There's a big difference between an insurer being happy to insure a modded car, and another insurer covering your mods *and* paying for them to be replaced. A lot of insurers will just do what toxo said - don't expect to get your mods repaired/replaced if they are damaged !
