| Re: Fabia vRS with strut brace??? When I was still with Zurich I had strut brace, rear ARB, Eibachs, 312 mm brake upgrade (fronts) added for 50 quid extra - fairly sure that was nearly for the full year. Any power enhancing stuff tends to kick the premium upward much faster, but I'd just ask for a quote

| Re: Fabia vRS with strut brace??? strut brace, rear ARB, Eibachs, 312 mm brake upgrade - all free The only thing that might affect the insurance would be a remap (or anything that increases BHP)... Apparently...  Thats with Highway insurance...
