Default Mud Flaps????????????????

Are they really a mod?, It's a long story.... but, My insurance company are asking £50 on top of what I pay already for Subaru fitted mudflaps!, Is it time to take them off for a few months and go else where? This insurance lark really does screw my mind!

I think they are taking the p*ss
What is their reason......Do they make your car more of a theft risk or do they give your car a power hike of 10%.
Utter bollox.

They are having a laugh! Not strictly a mod, Body protection!!!

I haven't even considered telling my insurance company about mine. Had them on 18 months, put them on two weeks after I got my car.

Out of interest - what insurance company?

I wanted to debadge my old car, I mentioned it to the insurance when I was querying something else. They said if they can't see the make and model on the outside of the car they wouldn't insure me! Crazy!

makes you wonder how much more your premium is car that has no mud flaps against a car that comes ready fitted with flaps.
Crazy.
