I paid £150 + VAT per bumper when I got mine done.
Anything between £100-200 is a decent price, anything over £200 per bumper is a little excessive.

Its better when they use a plastic welder rather than filler but it looks good which ever way they do it!

I guess if you declare them on the policy then Yes it might effect it but there really is no need to mention it.
it’s not as if you have fitted a Veilside bodykit, it’s just a slight bumper modification so I wouldn’t even tell them, I haven’t 8)

Just tell them its "lowered" they always pressume its springs anyway, chances are the guy/gal on the phone wont have a clue what coilovers are :)
