I don't think the value of your car will go up, but I'll look a lot nicer. That's all.

if it's not going to increase resale value, don't do it. What's the point?

If you know that you will never sell the car and keep it until the day you or it dies, then go ahead.

Do it if you want the color change, it's not going to increase the value of the car all that much, might decrease it depending on the person as well.

Modding your car based on what you think would raise resale value isn't the way you should be thinking about it anyways, you should be modding it to make it what YOU want.

I disagree. If you know you're not going to keep it, then why customize it?

For mods, if you want to raise the resale value, only add the OEM accessories.

If you know you're going to keep it, then do whatever you want to it.
