Yeah, I'm practically giving this stuff away. I just don't want it going to the dealership. My OEM sold for $500, Tom's Tails are priced at $200, Raceseng Slammer + Gunmetal lockout is $80....wheels and tires are $400. Yeah, I'm not too worried about making money. Just more interested in getting these parts to people who will appreciate them rather than have them go to the dealership.

15k for dealer trade in will save you what, 1k in sales tax in Texas? Take that into consideration with your calculation. Here in California with 9.25% sales tax trade in at that price is a better deal since it saves more sales tax. With 60k miles though that might be the best you can do.

You're correct, and that's something that they keep bringing up to me. I will get $900 or $1000 on top of my $15k offer. I'm feeling much better about the deal now that I've nearly finished parting my car. I should have about $1,500 back from all these mods...which I was basically about to just give to them for free. All that negotiating over more money for my trade, and all I had to do was sell some of my parts and get my money that way.
