OEM parts after a tune. Keep 'em?
I just put down a deposit with my local shop to run a Dinan S1 Package (S2 software, cf cold air intake, exhaust, and sport coilovers) + sway bars on my 2013 F10.
Just curious. Does anyone ever ask for their OEM parts back? My car has less than 18k miles on it and all the stock parts are probably still in excellent condition. Would there be a market for these parts? I assume they wouldn't be worth nothing. It feels like a waste to just throw them out or leave them with garage.

Always keep your stock parts. Upon sale of my cars, I am usually able to recoup about 50% of what I spent on mods by parting out.

Where do you guys keep these giant parts? Must have big houses / garages! I live in a condo with a public garage. I want to put on the Akra exhaust and the only reason I haven't done that is because I don't know what to do with the old one...

You got me there. If I were looking to replace my entire exhaust system I would keep the stock, but cut it up into sections and store it in my attic. Right now I have my stock mufflers, a front lip spoiler and some other random parts stored up there now. The rest of my parts are in boxes in my garage.

You'll never get anything for aftermarket parts on the car when you sell it. Most people don't want a car with mods. If they do, you'll hardly get anything. Like someone said previously if you buy a mod new and sell it later after you part out your car, you "should" get 50% of what you paid for it, but not always. I always keep my stock parts even though they take up a lot of space. I change cars a lot too. Only one I wish I kept was my gtr!
