Results may vary.
Anytime I mod a car, I always keep the OEM parts I pull off. I'm not giving the parts away to the next owner. And you'll really lose your ass on them if you sell them with the car. People like to play the "If you mod a car, it's actually worth less" game. The right way to play the game is mod the car, enjoy it, put it back to stock and sell it.

Side note, I'm about to pull the trigger on a CSL boot and diffuser from Status Gruppe. My buddy and I are authorized retailers. Thinking about the one piece lip too. Can't decide.
