I have a TON of 997 OEM parts that I need to list in the classifieds but do not know what they are worth or if they are worth posting at all?

Can someone help me put a value on this stuff, or is it not worth listing?

*Carrera S front bumper (complete with grills and brackets, plus center)
*Carrera S rear bumper
*Carrera S rear deck/wing
*19" Lobster Wheels/ New Potenza tires (less than 1k)
*997 Factory lights front bumper and rear tail
*997 rear seats with mounting (charcoal grey)
*Carrera S full OEM exhaust with tips
*Carrera S door scuff plates
*Carrera S (3.8) airbox
*997.2 GT3 RS rear bumper
*997 GT3 Grill Vent
*997.2 bumper light (right side)
*Gold Porsche Crest emblem
*Factory Grey caps (no crest)
*BOSE rear deck speaker box

Please help?

 

Do you have the cup holder mechanism?

 

Having just bought a ton of used parts off junked cars, they seemed to generally run a little under half what they'd be new. If they're new in box, more? Really depends what the market bears- betcha you could charge more for the bumpers than parts people would be less likely to need. Worth at least posting; never know what people need.

 

Unfortunately no I don't.

Yeah, I just don't know if it is worth my time to box them up and go through the hassle. They are all used take off parts in excellent condition.

 

May be better to look for PCA swap meets in your area; you'd just need a box truck or van to take the parts in. As far as current pricing, keep the prices very reasonable so you dont have to lug it back to storage. If you aren't used to boxing up stuff and shipping it, you may just have to take it to a UPS store and pay them to do it.

sounds like you have some desireable items, IMO.

Is the exhaust from a 997.2?

 

Everything is for 997.1 except the rear gt3 bumper and passenger front bumper light.

 

Well I guess I'm going to put it in the marketplace first on 6speed to gauge interest...

 

I have an OEM cup holder from a 997.1 available as the complete assembly with the the flip down front silver piece. Works perfectly. Removed when I replaced it with a complete unit with Macassar Wood trim in my wife's car that I bought from another forum member.

Let me know if you're interested via PM or to petza914@gmail.com

OP, I'll give you some values on the other parts as I've sold 1 or 2 of most of what you have.

 

LMK what you are asking for the lobsters

 

Here you go:

*Carrera S front bumper (complete with grills and brackets, plus center) - virtually valueless - might get $200 if your timing is good, but there are tons of them available and the cost to ship them is crazy due to their size.
*Carrera S rear bumper - see above
*Carrera S rear deck/wing - I've had one of these available for 18 months trying to get a few hundred dollars for it with no luck. I was able to sell the motor and wiring harness off of it for $150 which may be what you want to try
*19" Lobster Wheels/ New Potenza tires (less than 1k) - $1,000 shipped
*997 Factory lights front bumper and rear tail - $125-$200 per end for the pair
*997 rear seats with mounting (charcoal grey) - ?
*Carrera S full OEM exhaust with tips - if it's a PSE with PSE tips, $400-$500. If it's a regular exhaust, probably $200 as there are tons of these available from people who have done upgrades
*Carrera S door scuff plates - ?
*Carrera S (3.8) airbox - $200-$250
*997.2 GT3 RS rear bumper - being an RS, that might be worth something
*997 GT3 Grill Vent - $50 with the screen & mounting hardware
*997.2 bumper light (right side) - ?
*Gold Porsche Crest emblem $74-$100 depending on condition (if a mounting post is broken $20-$25)
*Factory Grey caps (no crest) - $50
*BOSE rear deck speaker box - ?

I've found that the best market for these items are to people who modded their cars when they owned them and sold off their OEM parts. Now they're selling the car and want to return it to stock so they can sell their mods separately to get more total $s than they would receive for selling them installed on the car as there are not as many buyers for a modded car as their are for an OEM spec car.

Good luck.

 

I am a 997 parts hoarder. I have a problem. But I can quit any time I want.
I will share some of the prices that I have paid for parts that I don't need.
They are strictly for extra just in case. Like ... A boat with a spare propeller, you'll never need it.
Stock 997.1 springs - $125
stock exhaust. 3 cans, could be a 997.2? $125
car cover $150, came with weathertech mats that I wanted.
Lobsters with snow tires, small bend scuff in one rear. still runs true. $5oo/4

To me, you'll always over pay when you need. If you don't need, you purchase with a sensible financial head.

 

^ Those are about the lowest prices I've heard on all those parts.

Exhaust usually closer to $300-500 for all 3 cans
Lobster wheels anywhere from $700-1K depending on condition

 

Well, my Lobsters are brand NEW condition. Just had them powdercoated OEM silver metallic, with NEW OEM center caps, and the tires have less then 1k driven on them...

I don't think I could sell them for less than $1500, otherwise I will put them in storage for spares.

As for the rest, I guess its really not worth listing besides the GT3 RS rear bumper.

Thanks for the help guys!
