Anybody in my age bracket 19-20 added a 60mm throttle body or axle spacers to their policy?

if so what did they charge you, my renewal is coming up and just interested what the going rate is for adding those things !

Cheers. Jake

TBH I wouldn't bother about the throttle body

Depends who are with, generally admiral have been about £40-60 per mod

i know adding mods is important and i have declared all mine.

but is anyone goin to notice the difference in a couple of mm on a throttle body?? know one would know it was different by looks and is still a ford product. i wouldnt bother.

and axle spacers again isnt such a visable thing but up to you. i wouldnt say it would be much of a change. possibly admin charges depending on company as well

I dont think they'd notice the throttle body but it might be worth declaring. I payed £52 for one mod at 19, so I had to chose between lowering, K&N and axle spacers because it was £160 for 2 mods...

haha, now now boys, ok i was unsure on the throttle body as you say cant really tell the difference from looking at the engine, at the moment added to quote got full system,lowered,k&N and its gone up on a quote from 970 to 1030. things to add on the phone is throttle body axle spacers and grilles black, so might just do the axle spacers and grilles. Cheers !
