Fun fact. Just installed my new solo hfc's. GM has the number one most stolen catalytic converters. Reason being there is platinum is their component. If you cant sell the part to a camaro owner, a scrapper would be more than happy to take them off your hands. |

I keep everything. I have:
4 sets of wheels (1 set on the car) and I'm 1 wheel short of a 5th set. 2- stock grills (1 on the car) Stock exhaust Stock shift knob Stock non RS headlights And when I had a CAI I had stock air box |

Yes absolutely I keep everything I take off the car, even when I did the widebody kit I still kept the bumpers, the fenders, everything. Obviously the body work like fenders I can't really do much with, but if you ever return it back to stock to trade in, it would be nice to take off all the aftermarket parts and sell them off the car, you'll get more value out of your aftermarket parts you take off rather than just try to sell the car with the mods on.

I have everything, but I'm thinking of selling the V6 brakes. The rear dust shields and master cylinder conversion are just too labor intensive to consider un-installing if I ever sell the car. So by that logic, I guess the spare tire can go as well since it will no longer fit.

Those of us who have been into cars for many years know the importance of STOCK. Keep the parts. Put them in the trunk, or on a shelf in your garage.

I pulled the LS3 at 651 miles for a LSX & supercharger. Stock engine is on a stand in my garage. The only tear off I haven't kept it the exhaust pipes.

I have the npp. The npp is a good sounding stock exhaust. But my god when you put those solo hfc's on there its amazing. I was thinking well when i put the hfc's on and maybe still want more sound Ill just buy something else, but i am totally happy with this and dont plan on changing out the npp. plus being able to open and close the exhaust with my garage door buttons is pretty cool.

Only stock part I've kept is my air box so I can smog the car. I just don't have the room for the stock parts and selling for a few bucks now to recoupe the cost of aftermarket parts to me makes sense, I'll worry about long term in the long term lol
