if I go through insurance to get my bonnet done will it affect my annual insurance cost?

Reply ...... by however much they can get away with !
I searched in this forum about
car insurance and couldnt find anything but this post.
Reply...... simple reason because there are are too many variables. That's why there is a policy document applicable to your cover.
You need to read your policy details in respect of NCD (no claims discount) if you've built up any, and what effect this might have in knocking that back if you claim. You will also have an Excess to pay anyway if you claim. (probably several £hundred).
I'm tempted to say that if you can afford to pay and have it done without involving the insurance company at your age I would do that. Other wise this will 'haunt' your insurance records for years to come (remember that insurance companies share info now) and could prove costly on future premiums.
