Should parts taken off for personal mods be save for he next owner? Wheels, deklid etc? Not sure if bone stock is valuable like on classics.


Thanks for the input.

 

Absolutely keep the original parts.

I made extensive changes to by previous 911 and sold the original parts via Excellence and Panorama. In the end, when I sold it, the buyer wanted it just the way it was.

 

Do you have room to store them without paying for it?

 

Room is at a premium which is the one of the Issues. In the past I always saved take offs but in the end no one wanted them...from cars to Harleys. However this is my first 911 and I do not have any experience with buyers.

Thanks for participating. It really is appreciated.

 

Depending if you plan to sell your car privately or trading it in. Trade-ins will probably net you better dollars if you have all the OEM parts.

 

it depends which type of parts you're talking about. if its wheels and the decklid i would keep them. you can always sell your aftermarket parts and put it back to stock. any aftermarket parts i've had sold quickly in the classifieds and i was able to get back a large percentage of what i put towards them. i know your turbo spoiler and CAI would sell quickly.

 

I will probably keep them then. The CAI and the wheels are easy to swap back and resell. The lid not so easy. I left all my tools in WI so I would have to pay someone to swap it back.

 

These are the wheels I am considering:

 

those would look nice in silver on your white car. the vendors have been pushing those wheels pretty hard lately. the roderick rw5 wheel looks similar if you prefer a split 5 spoke. they're about the same price.

 

I have been looking at those as well. They look like so may others with all the spokes is my hesitation.

 

This one gets my vote. Either silver or black should look fantastic on your car.

 

Keep the parts you will be glad you did= put it back to stock sell parts/buyers usually prefer stock cars.
