It seems to me like the majority of the things I have done to the car are things that most people on here do. But yes, most of this stuff can be sold with relative ease.
To keep on the car:
- PPF and Tint
- CF floor mats
- SS brake lines
- Clear side markers
- Frunk liner
- OEM baggage net
- Antigravity battery

Those are the least controversial items, or the things that people can remove/throw away without too much loss if they don't like them.

Take off everything else and sell individually at 20% discount.

Unless you can find a specific buyer who wants your car the way it is, mods will actually decrease the value of your car to any type of dealer.

Keep the PPF and all your Porsche OEM "mods" on, that 4RS shift **** is so desirable and unobtainium ATM.

Those P1 inserts can go into your future LWBs, unless you're not staying with the family, brand.

Those are all pretty good mods that tend not to be very controversial. List it for sale as-is and offer to remove anything a buyer might prefer not having. Best of both worlds that way. Wider audience. It's not like you painted flames on the car or something.

Base price for the car is high for a private party sale. Assuming it's in perfect condition, with CPO a dealer might get close to that.

Mod value, if any, will depend on what they are and how desirable they are (i.e., was it for exhaust or a Hello Kitty wrap). 50% for mods that most buyers would want is likely best case. Money spent on mods that don't appeal to others will be worth zero.

Edit, just saw that you listed the mods. I'd bet you'd get around 50% of what you spent for that group of modifications.

I thought you were joking!

This makes sense to me, thanks.

Advertise the car as-is and see if you get any offers...you never know who is looking for what. After that, you can negotiate to remove things if need be.
