And that's not a mean thing to say.
Agreed - mods, no matter how tasteful, drop the value of a vehicle below stock. I nearly got roped in to overpaying for a blacked-out, lowered Mk4 Jetta and came to my senses just in the nick of time (both at the fact that I would be overpaying for mods that I happened to like, and to the fact that I was about to buy a VW with a 1.8T engine... the horror!).

Good luck to the seller, maybe he'll hit the jackpot, but more realistically it'll be a life lesson.
