Thats a big if...
Also what if they turn around and say, well you can back date the mods..that will be an extra £10K please sir.
You then have a choice of a £10K bill or no insurance (= at least £200 fine and six points!!)

theres no way the insurance would allow you to back date your payments on your mods, they will try and get out of paying out if they can, not make it easier for you to get them to pay out

I got told by a lad at an insurance brokers that there is no point in declaring re-maps, headwork, cams or any internal work. What you can't see don't declare. Theres never been any case of an insurance company stripping an engine to look at mods.

again, you are wrong aswell. my car insurer allowed the modifications to be added to my policy after the accident which wasn't my fault meaning my insurance wasn't invalid.
i'm not sure if they would do this if the accident was your fault. but i was the third party in the accident so could have been a reason why they did it?

yes, what you claim is ridiculous, basically i could insure a lambo as a corsa then when i crash pay to insure it as a lambo and get a payout.
im sure in your case because the crash wasnt your fault they agreed to do it as they weren't paying out, however it wouldve been a different kettle of fish if the accident was your fault

probably steve, but we'll never know. i understand where you are coming from though, i just don't like to be called a liar when i'm not 
but yeah in short, it is a silly idea not delaring modifications. costs you more in the long run - i had to pay £600 extra just to add the alloys and exhaust to my policy.

tbh i think you should draw a line with it when your doin mods, i mean my insurance company know about my wheels and it being lowered and the exhaust, they dont know about it being colour coded and the grill and and any ice or my side reps, i mean theres being covered and fully insured then theres pissing in the wind imo

I agree, same with a set of smoked headlights, gsi spoiler etc. If you crash and their still intact rip them off before the insurance come and look at the car
Insurance is bad enough for young drivers nowdays without declaring mods and making it even more expensive

so for the first time you obviously don't know anything. it took me ages to argue the case to them that i will pay the excess for the modifications and in the end they allowed me to do it. probably due to the fact i was the third party in the accident as they would reclaim all costs off the other blokes insurer.
am i wiser because of it? yes
was i stupid? yes
have i learned? yes
are you a fucking wanker for calling me a liar when it was my car and my insurance and i know what i paid for? yes
