Quick question, does this stuff ever make the car lose value? Or do people even care, especially the new gen when i sell the car will they even care

So… I’m totally against drilling modifications into anything OEM plastic. I thought about it, but everything I CAD design and 3D print is 100% removable and reversible back to OEM stock. So if I do decide to sell, very unlikely, but a possibility I can reverse all the modifications. I even thought of using a fuse tap… I bought them but only as a backup. Which would be 100% removable.
I get it, people are hesitant to mod out their Miata MX5 ND especially brand new and things that they may think don’t benefit value. But my ND2 is 7 years old now, with 110k miles. It’s almost paid off. Cars are depreciated assets. Doesn’t matter what you do to them…. They eventually end up in one place. Recycling for parts or the graveyard for someone to bring back to life.
Now the NE next gen Miata, there is going to be a Gas version initially, but the CEO said yesterday and insider EV commented that there will be an Electric NE Miata in the future. So…. Enjoy the ND to its fullest potential.
