Going back to stock when selling car

Let say you get something like the Mtech Rear Bumper for an E92...

When your selling the car, will you have to remove that bumper or can you get away with selling it with the car.

Considering this bumper is designed to look like an OEM LCI bumper, I'm hoping you won't have to switch for the OEM bumper , am I right?

Forgot to mention, the Mtech Rear will be a replica, but assume it has perfect fitment and you can't tell the difference

If anything that's an upgrade from the OEM bumper and if you sell to an enthusiast;
-he'll likely love it

If you sell to a normal average everyday buy;
-he won't know the difference lol

Win/win my friend

Same thing lol - as long as fitment is perfect and not damaged it'll be considered an upgrade

most people go back to stock to get the most cash out of the parts they added.
noone is going to give you extra money as they can just argue they would have rather had it stock.
especially a dealership, they wont give you a dime for any mods.
I always keep my OEM parts, but there are plenty of people who will swap you +cash for your mods.
No reason to leave money on the table.
its like filling a rental car with gas to return it when they only gave you it with a 1/4 tank

I second that. You shouldn't have any problems at all with it.

^ this.

I generally sell/throw out my OEM parts from exterior mods to engine parts, and when the time comes to sell I will probably leave on the car for an enthusiast or ask for their stock part + cash. I dont have the space nor the time to bother selling the OEM parts everytime I do something haha
