Is OEM downpipe/air filter worth anything?

Not sure it's worth cleaning this up. Reckon it's worth anything?
Originally I thought I would put the bits back on the car when selling, but I don't care about resale value now that the 10-year ICE ban has been announced.

I'd keep hold of the cat in case you have issues passing MOT.

Some of the sports cats fail if they are not upto a high temp before emissions test.

Also, if you need to remove the remap and flash back to stock there is a good chance of a engine management light if you have a sports cat fitted without the spacer.

Lots of places will buy the cat off you - have a look online.

I sold mine and it paid for my downpipes!
