Love CS. Only here do you find people wanting to give even more money to insurance comapanies.

You: Oh hai Mr insurer. I have just put a "steal this car" sticker on my car, can I pay by credit card for the increase in premium?

Dont forget the uprated suspension.

Or the revised steering geometry with the cup hubs (steering arm mounting lowered & caster from ~1.3-1.5 to 3deg iirc).

I didn't know painted wheels and non performance enhancing spoiler was classed as a modification.

it's not a cup so it has to be a 182.

RE insurance purposes, couldn't agree more. It’s not a cup, it is a 182 but with cup packs. Performance enhancement isn't the only benchmark that policies are based on. The optional rims, spoiler, splitter, dampers and hubs aren't standard items to the spec of a baseline 182 (regardless of performance enhancement although arguably the revised caster, lower r/h & stiffer damping are). If there is no difference with the optional parts then why are they of different spec and why do they have different part numbers when compared to the std/baseline items?

Should have just bought a 182Cup. They're faster anyway...
