Default Whats my jeep worth?

Thinking about trading my 2 door in on a 4 door. What's a fair price to ask for my jeep?

2009
2 door
38000 miles
Superchips flashpak
Sprintbooster
Smittybilt stinger
Engo 10k winch
Ace narrow fenders
Ace rock rails
Bestop rear bumper/tire carrier
Bedlined tub
Aev snorkel
Light force 170's
5 - 33x12.5x17 general grabbers 50% tread
Procomp wheels
2.5" rough country springs/shocks

I realize I won't get all my mod money back. I'm just looking for an honest opinion on what to ask for it. I still have my front and back oem bumpers I could put back on so that might be an option too. I could also part my mods that won't switch over to the 4 door out. Just trying to figure out the best route to go.

Kelly's blue book said 17k trade in and 20k to a private seller. That's a stock vehicle. So I might of well take off all my mods if I just went by that.

With a private sale, modifications are worth about 10% of their new cost while on your rig.

If you pull off the mods and sell them, they are worth about 50% of new.

If you trade in to the dealer, mods do not increase what they will pay you.

Small market for modded jeeps, most people will not buy a molested vehicle and the ones that want a built one will want to do it themselves. I would put it back to stock as much as you can and expect a dealer to offer you around 12-15k for it depending on where you live.
