Default Possible sale gauging intrests?????

I am thinking of selling my 06' xb and I wanted to get some advice on price and where I should try to sell it.......







you can obviously see what I have on the outside.....Under the hood I have an injen engine cover, oil cap, and short ram intake polished. I am dropped with tanabe df210's and I have a progress rear sway bar and a strupp header. I also have the stock parts to go with it. I keep it immaculate inside and out also under the hood and in the door jambs.It is garage kept and only has just over 23K on the odometer. By the way the rims are NKB Power Mesh 16x9 with a plus 30 offset. The tires on the rims really should be replaced. As of this moment I am riding on stockies with trim rings for the winter so no worries at the moment.I also have fender flares still in white fiberglass not on yet and I also have an abs x-2 lip kit not finished but waiting to go on. I was thinking of putting it up for about $15,500.......Does anyone think this is a good price for what I have into it or not???Where could I possibly sell it besides on e bay......have not had good luck in the past trying to sell on there .So all of your input would be great guys and gals. Thanks in advance.......

Honestly, you'd probably do better parting out.

I love those wheels. :drool:

Good luck on that price. Several heavily modified xB's have sold recently for less.

As Ian said part it out and then sell it as stock. I am guessing you would be able to get close to the 15,500 out of it if done that way.

you will always do better parting it out.
#1 is harder to find someone that like how you have things setup.
#2 alot of dealers will try and talk you down "because" of what you have done.

return it as close to stock as you can then sell it

It sounds like my best option is to part it out........I may be doing that in the next 6 to 8 weeks or so .......I love my car but I need a truck to haul my boat ....I do a lot of fishing and crabbing so not having to yuck my wifes suburban up would be great.I paid way too much money for the suburban to have it smell like fish and crabs. But if I decide to part it out I will place a nice list on here for you guys to pilge through.......Thanks for all of your input and stay tuned

I say it def. worth your price. Only problem is finding that one person willing to buy it. Look at Randodes lime xB for example. He has over 25K into it and is having trouble selling it for a mere 14K.
Sorry to say it but parting it and putting it back closer to stock may be the only way to get back some of your investment.
