? about bumper covers and exhaust

Today I ordered a Stage 1 tuning kit and a JCW Airo Kit. Since the exhaust and covers belong to me I would like to sell them and recoup some of the costs if possible. Before I lug them home is there much of a market for them (more likely bumper covers) and about how much should I ask (will also look in the market place)? Is it worth it and can they be shipped UPS?

Mine is a 08 S Pepper White.

Seems like most people put their bumpers in the NAM marketplace for $150-$200 each.

Yea, they may not be worth the trouble. I just hate to see like new bumper covers hit the trash.

I'm sure someone will buy them. Might be worth saving them in case something happens to one of your JCW bumpers.

This may be a thought though not sure where to store them. What about the exhaust? Should I just let MINI discard it?

I believe it is stainless steel. So, it would have some scrap value. You might ask if the dealer sends it to a recycler, or land fill. Monetarily it probably wouldn't be worth your time to deal with it. I suspect the only customers for a used exhaust would be those needing to go back to stock after a mod gone bad.
