Modding with a lease

Modding with a lease
So i noticed lots of people on here doing mods which is great. I leased mine, but want to do a few things like axle back exhaust and lowering, maybe some wheels. Obviously the wheels can be switched back quick and easy as long as i keep them, but then lowering springs and exhaust would take a bit more work.
My question is this... how many people here that are modding, are also LEASING? Whats the game plan once the lease is up?
I have modded tons of cars in my day, but i always bought and sold them so didnt matter as much.
Thanks for the input.

The pursuit of F
I've had no issues with similar "reversible" mods on other Lexus vehicles but I've always signed into a new Lexus lease prior to the term end while dealing with my same sales rep, same dealer over the years.
With my IS, I may trade it in 2016 well before my term end for another Lexus (TBD) and I won't bother paying about the same amount in labor to remove a set of RSR Downs, but I will DIY unbolt my axle back and replace it with the stock one.

Springs and exhaust take no time to install or replace. The exhaust can be done in less than an hour of labor and the springs around 2 hours. The springs are super simple if you have a spring press (25$ at an auto parts store). I'll sell you my RSR lowering springs for cheap if you decide to go for it. Most exhausts for the RCF should easily sell when you decide to part it back out.
