Default Re-stocking my RSX. (Bay Area people, I need your help!)

I've been neglecting my car. I've finally decided to bring her back to USDM standards as I might trade it in for a BMW. I need some help Honda-Tech!

1. I installed a whole sound system and removed all of my interior panels. In doing so, I lost/broke most of the clips Anyone know where I can get those damned clips besides the dealership?

2. Where in the bay area can I get the interior panels installed besides the dealership?

3. I have two hand sized dents on my rear driver's side quarter panel. I'm thinking of going paintless-dent-removal with those... unless you have a better suggestion!

4. $11,360 trade-in value, $13,035 private party... how much would a custom turbo kit bring that value down? Am I better off selling the turbo kit separate?

5. I'm assuming I should replace the DIY headlights

Thanks for your help!

Yea, your better off selling the turbo by its self. Get more money out of it.

Why not put the interior back together and try to sell it private party with everything else on it first?

I'm trying to get about $11,000 for the car and around $2,000 for the turbo. I have around $9,000 saved up on top of that.

Aiming for the new 335i by the end of this year.
