What do you do with all your leftover stock parts?

I've come to the conclusion that my car will never go back to stock.. so I don't feel compelled to keep them, but I assume they must have some value. I've had the factory exhaust from my 2011 (pour one out... ) on craigslist for months with no bites... now that I have gone TT with my 2013 I have WAY more to get rid of. I assume trying to sell all this stuff to single private parties will take forever. What do YOU do?

Post a for sale thread on the forum and some always sell and some never do and you would recycle or scrap.
Ex. Shift Knob/CAI/ Interior parts/ Body Kit - w/o wear and tear SELLABLE Base/Sport Exhuast- Scrap metal except for tips. Nismo Exhuast - possible you can sell for like $200-$300

i usually keep the stock bits until the day i sell the car.
but sometimes i get lazy and just sell the car and later I need to make space so i take it to this city run recycling center. last time i took some car parts (springs, door, hood, trunk lid, exhaust, etc) they weighed it and gave me like $10 for everything. i gave it to the guy who helped me out as tip. i just wanted to clear out my storage area..and i know my garbage truck guy would never take big things on the edge of my driveway. |

Nothing stock is worth good money, post them up on here in exchange for beer and karma points, if you don't get any hits, trash

I gave away my stock intakes to a local member in need and traded my stock exhaust plus cash for FI from another local member who was trading in.
I still have a few small misc stock parts that I will likely get rid of when I need the room

Forgot to also mention...
After I installed the Z1 CSC Elimination Kit I sent my 51K mile and still working CSC to a fellow forum member who cut it open to reveal the poorly designed, failure-prone inner workings

I sold the ones I thought worth it and threw the rest away. If the G ever gets sold its as a turbo car cuz I'm not uninstalling the kit.
