It's interesting you mention CGU.
Were one of the companies I looked at when getting quotes on line last year and it said they couldn't insure me because my vehicle is modified (2" lift).
Yours isn't modified I take it?

I smashed my rear bumper up and QBE was happy for me to pay the extra for a steel one. Have also done the same with a front bar on my old XJ. You just need to find a reasonable panel beater.
