I have already bought another vehicle after talking to a guy who told me that he sells these cars already converted for 8k all day long. Now that I am realizing that that isn't the case and I probably paid too much for the car, I am reconsidering the options. Does anyone really think it would be worth my time and money to fix all of this and try to sell car and kit separate? Or just take what I can get and move on?

I am actually working out in Washington state right now and is where I was trying to sell it. I leave in a few weeks to go back to Missouri where I can get work done on it cheaper, but am concerned about driving it with the bad motor mounts.
You should be concerned about driving it with bad motor mounts, on those cars with the turbo, the impact is greater, which is why the motor mounts are made of a different material hardness than my 240D.
