New car roof wrap
Discussion
Dealer supplied brand new unregistered car. Green vehicle. Factory option has choice of white or black roof.
Dealership has vehicle with white roof.
Dealership have said they can wrap roof in black to mirror the black factory finish rather than wait for factory order. Exact same visual look.
Insurance quote system doesn't ask for colour or factory spec - just model name.
Would this be classed as an insurance modification?
Identical price for white and black factory fitted. just different colour roof.
i expect it would be an insurance modification, but interested on others.

All you will achieve on here are a bunch of opinions and a smattering of gripes about unrelated modifications.
Thats why i said i was interested in others views and/or experiences.Pointless spending 30 mins on phone to each insurer if those with experience know x,y,z insurer would be fine with it. just narrows the search.
There have been a few threads where people have said some insurers won't cover cars with wraps or PPF at all - Aviva was mentioned the other day.
Also another thread on change of audio unit where the PHer was quoted a small uplift then when he rang to make the change they wouldn't do it. That was Hastings.
So it's a bit of a can of worms.

thank you - didn't realise it was a minefield for a sticker on the roof
i'm in 50's so not a barry, so assumed black applied in factory might be same as black in dealership, but appears these insurers are wary. my insurer only charged a few quid, but seeing those threads about axa and aviva has spooked me. therefore, going to go with factory spec vehicle.
