1sole · 05-10-2008, 01:41 PM

i am trading in my 06 civic ex to a honda dealer soon. Currently i have both front and rear factory lip on, would the trade in value be higher if i have those on or dealer wouldnt care at all?

Sale it privately... You get a lot more for it

1sole · 05-11-2008, 05:57 AM

yeah im thinking about leaving those on and my wheels and exhaust.. if let say i get 15k from a private party, how much would the dealer give me? maybe 12k?

Itchytoe · 05-11-2008, 07:57 PM

yea, it it's 15K privately, you should expect 12K from a dealer, but you'll get completely ripped off if you trade in. That's only a good deal for the dealer.

If i were to sell it privately, what is the best form of payment i should accept

RobertsD · 05-13-2008, 02:59 AM

A bank certified check(not sure if that is the right term). They Get a loan through their bank, and the bank gives them a check written out to you. Or they have the money in their account, and they bank takes the money and writes the check. Either way, that is the best form of payment, since the money is there for sure.

To answer the question, yes, an HFP lip kit, front and back, increases the value of the car.
You can't say the same for some other exterior mods, but you are doing well with that because it's something that Honda offers as an option when it sells the car.
