So I had my mini in at a VW dealership and they gave me a decent price on a trade in. My question is, I have the Dinan S1 package (cross brace, exhaust, intake) and a dinan badge on the back. When I take it back to get my car, should I strip out the cross brace and intake to replace with OEM? Do you think they will even know? They told me more than likley it will go to an auction house. It could be a couple more $$ in my pocket for the same trade in price quoted.

What do you guys think?

U selling your mini? Why?

to support soon to be wife and new house

I would say strip it off. They aren't going to give you anymore or anyless money because it is or isn't there.

If you're getting another Mini that can use it, keep it.

Or sell it to a fellow NAM'er (hint hint)
