I say, try to sell it yourself first if you are in no rush. Dealerships rape you by not giving you shit for trade in.

Sounds to me like you're kinda lazy.

Just change the crap back to stock and sell the parts on a forum. It'll be a ~$3k swing in money for a couple hours worth of work.

I was going to go with this ^^ but then I realized that maybe he isn't capable so he's avoiding it at all costs The simple solution is to sell it through vortex or CL and be done with it.

This really has nothing to do with being lazy, it has to do with returning it back to stock being a pain in the a$$.

1. I have the stock exhaust, but it is under my deck and i really have no idea what kind of shape it is in, and I would have to get it re-welded before installing it.

2. I dont have the stock suspension, so I would have to take my current suspension off, sell it, then get stock suspension from someone and re-install that.

Just seems like a pain a$$.

Thats most likely what I will be doing, I just wanted to know if anyone had any experiences with dealerships that dont hate on having mods.

Nothing too major, cv joint, brake light switch (common problem). Just convenient how it all happens after the car goes out warranty.
