Just wondering if any of you who have done the whole conversion from either 8P1 or 8P2 to the most recent 8P3 front and rear ends have found the px value when selling?

Is a dealer more likely to look at it and quote less as its not in its original spec, or do they take into account that its been updated and therefore is more desirable to people who can't afford a new A3?

Most dealers will just go by book price and offer you just that, any extras or anything they just say better of selling privately.
 
I can only see it devaluing the car. anything away from std will knock the price and a 8p3 front end on a 8p2 car smacks of a front end smash.
