fit it yourself mate.. it's really easy.. but you'll be lucky finding a mk5 gti in shadow blue! phone your insurance company and ask about the gti bumper, say that it's a genuine vw part and not some crappy fiberglass replica.

Surely only things that increase the performance of a vehicle affect insurance premiums like a sports air intake or a turbo kit, rather than something cosmetic like a bumper?

It's also about the cost of replacing the part. If you have an expensive custom bumper, the cost of that will be considered within your quote. Also things like rims for example, increase the attraction of the car to thieves.
also if you can afford to declare new wheels, the bumper won't affect it much. it's oem vw, looks alot better and it's a lot harder to steal than a set of wheels.
