Most people will tell you to lower it and drop a k & n in there straight away, after that it depends what cash you wanna spend and what you want to achieve

on a serious note lol, exhaust system air filter and map shouldn't raise your policy too much- I already have a k&n and flexi, if I got mp165 I wouldn't even have to inform them as I already have 'exhaust changes' and a different air filter anyway

You could order them and ring up a local sign fitter and ask if they can fit them for you? Or a tinting place? Ford garage?

Be careful Han. DMB have the rights to copy exact stripes, other places are not up to the standard and they look pants.

Order from DMB delivered and just shop around for a good graphics fitter.

Yeah fading stripes would look really nice, although I like naked black st's. I'm sure if you added a k&n it wouldn't cost to much on the insurance. Are you at any shows this year?

Side stripes arent really that difficult to fit if you take your time. I put mine on in 2 hours or so including cleaning the car. Never done the OTT Stripes though

Han, my advice would be get a K&N ASAP, just the noise alone makes it worth it......

Its a must have MOD for an owner

Ok I'll put it plain and simple....get one! actually get whatever you can afford they're both the same really ones just abit more expensive and better looking. Depends how much your insurance charge you aswell. I just got mine down to £930 fully comp with everything delcared which isn't too bad I suppose

That's with 2 years no claims, I park on the street though. That's really cheap for a 19 year old <.< Are you the main driver? It's mainly down to postcode tbh. A friend of mine in the area paid 3.3k for a 1.1 Alto with 0 ncb :/.

yeah. on the second year or whatever it's worth paying what you did on your first car for something so much quicker . it makes it seem cheaper. i nearly got a type r but insurance was 7k

They've been really good with me. £120 to declare K&n, wheels, seats, brake upgrade and lowering. When I renewed my insurance in December they realised they missed a years NBC of my policy last year and they took that saving off this years premium. I've got no complaints about them.

Another view on Admiral but from another angle.......... when that bloody girl crashed into me last year putting me in hospital, she was with Admiral. They were absolutely spot on in sorting me out, compo, injury re hab, physio, replacing my bike etc etc etc

same here but it only worked out about £80-100 more for me to have tints, lowered suspension, full exhaust, k&n, external and internal changes (which I didn't have to individually list thank god so it covers all of them)
