Bill,

You already mods a lot of parts. aerodynamic; shock; spring; muffler, sprint booster. I think your insurance void if that insurance company in serious inspection. No doubt for M5 steering wheel and don;t miss the chance. This one fit for you if your is Post 09/05.

http://cgi.ebay.com.hk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...%3A1|240%3A1318

You just miss the chance and hope the seller re-post shortly.Used one Just HK$ 6,700 + shipping and handle, I think less than HK$ 8,000 will have paddle shift, but need USD 300 more for paddle shift wiring.
Ricky you forgot our posts on insurance.

Voids:
Coilovers (shocks+springs are ok)
change engine (bad news)
change the height of the car (supposed to be same diam and tyre)
wheels wider than the car body (no wide spacers)
manifolds and cat removal (sound and emission

If you inform your insurance co, of aero parts, mufflers etc,. that won't void the insurance.
but admittedly quads wil be scrutinised and insurers said that mods must be legal acc to trans dept....
if you don't inform them you are at risk if anything bad happens

S Wheel, is in the pipeline, i am poor right now

bill if our car give out more HP than the stock the void it right away.
Some insurance are OK coz keith84_uk friend has a crash and it was a total loss about half a year ago and his car was fully mod and the engine was mod too and he claimed all the money back.
