Yup the resale sucks

Build to keep or its not worth really building cause you will never see the money again

4K sounds about right.

You're better off parting out the car, and scrapping the shell, then selling it as a whole. Kind of a pain in the ass to do, but you could probably pick up at least another grand or two.

all the above posts are quite valid. I would agree with all of them. Unfortunately like corpsemangler said, mods dont add value. Sorry man. 4G's is all you will see most likely.
