They just don't realize OEM is almost always better quality than aftermarket, not to mention OEM stuff was designed by the people who built the rest of the car, so it's going to fit and function better. One more thing is when people see performance mods the first thing that comes to mind is that the car was beat to hell.
Correct. If I'm buying a used car, I want a stock one. Of course, if I look it over and see that you modded it and put it back to stock. I'm even more suspicious.

That being said, if I ever sell my Z it's getting sold as-is. I made that decision when the turbo kit went on. I'm selling off all of the OEM parts to clear out the garage and shed.
