Exclamation HELP lease is up w/ mods

I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this question, but here it is. So my G37s's lease is coming to an end and I'm looking to get a new car (M2? i wish). But the problem is that I (stupidly?) put aftermarket parts on it (stillen Gen 3, Ecutek, tune, and eibach springs). Will the dealer accept the car back and/or penalize me? or do I have to put the original parts on?

Thanks for the help,

Jason

Still have original parts? Time to swap them back in.

Yep, hopefully you have the oem parts and just take a hit on the labor to have them reinstalled. You should have little trouble selling all that aftermarket stuff here in the marketplace.

I believe you'd have to go back to an Ecutek dealer and have them flash back to stock but not 100% sure on that one. Might post that question in this folder~

Better than me. I would have just ran bolt ons at a maximum.

Leave the springs in. They will not even notice.

Sell the intakes to get your money back. Thats it.

(Ive turned in 2 lowered vehicles and never had any issues. Experience)

If I do end up getting rid of my car, I will part my car out and probably put it up on the marketplace

I'm not sure if I am a fan of the new Camaro... But I test drove a Mustang GT today and that thing felt like a boat and didn't really feel that fast. And German cars are just built so well! I also tested the M235i and its a phenomenal car

get a preinspection done, if they find any of the parts in the vehicle they can charge you for non-oem parts and force you to replace them
