hmmm... months after months i have been trying to save for mods but its just way too hard and that got meto thinking... maybe i should sell my stock parts to buy aftermarket parts?

what do you guys think about me doing this? is it wise or unwise to do this. i mean im going to have my b7 for at least 3 years so... i dont know please tell me you opinion on this matter.

like... i dont know about my insides of the car such as stock down exhausts... intake ... turbo... etc etc... nothing realy internal... mostly im thinking about selling my stock rims... they are in perfect condition. and i mean i dont know its a big deal for me to sell them. is it? i dont know what do you guys think?

you could sell it.. you could always trade your aftermarket parts with a stock whenever you decide to go back to stock..
but.. you might not get that many people interested since you're non-sline.. you gotta think.. everybody has what you have.. but you might get some people trying to go back to stock.. anyways.. doesnt hurt to try..

easier to keep stock parts. you can't get much for stock parts anyway.
When i demod i want to be able to put my stock crap back on the same day. should be a 2 day process for everything.

but for him is a different case.. He wants some $$$ for his mods.. and selling his stock parts is a way to make some (you cant make much, but still)
It would be a lot easier if your car was a S-line

I'd keep every single stock part. Sometimes you might get lucky and someone might want to demod and trade you his for yours kinda thing. Take the modding slow, live with what you got. And if you absolutely want something use the plastic cards or save up.

i like this guys.[:D]

anyways, you won't get much for you stock parts. wheels would be the best to sell, where you live, it should easy to acquire another set if needed.

X3, because you get to put it back to stock easily, and you can get some $ back from your mods.
