Then they find out you changed it without their knowledge, they will probably deny your claim as you did not honour your duty of disclosure requirements.

Even organising my insurance, I had to disclose all factory options as well, in case of a claim. The insurance company has to know everything about your car.

thanks, as I thought.

Im just worried if I tell them i retrofitted a m-sport bumper, they will consider it to be the whole m-sport kit (seats, interior exterior etc) and my insurance cost will shoot up more than it should. How should I word it as to not cause confusion?
