Don't sell them.

Most likely you'll want to put them back on in like 2 years, so why go through the trouble of looking for good ones and getting paint matched.

The little bit of money you would get get for them isn't worth it.

To most people they wouldn't be worth any more than any OEM hood and hatch out of any junkyard in America. The hatch does have it's benefits, but comparitively few people are going to take note of that. Keep the stuff.

Not only is keeping it a good idea, but you have your fancy little VIN number matching stickers on all the panels.

Keep the stock parts. Then whenever you sell the car down the road, put them back on and sell the Carbon Fiber parts. You will get more for the Type-R stock and you will also get more for the "upgrade" parts later on. Some people have a stigma about buying a modified car. Either they feel it doesn't suit thier tastes the way it has been changed or they feel maybe the car has been beaten. ie mods = racer immature mentality. I'm sorry to say it, but alot of people have that stereotype. That removes all of those potential buyers from looking at your car, making it much harder to sell.
