Carbon fiber roof? Why. sheding 3 lbs isnt going to do anything for that car. The roof is an integral part to ANY car, unless your building a race car dont mess with it. They dont make “bolt on carbonfiber roofs” for any car. To do it grab a sawzal and bust out your cf skills and go to town. lol

Carbon fiber engine cover, they make. search 1.8t carbon fiber engine cover. $100 or so irc. Or give me the oem cover and ill make an overlay for you.

Carbon fiber lip kit. Strike 2. Nobody I know makes them for the a4, or any VW/audi bumper(s) I know of.

Do your research. The A4 is a good platform, with TONS of aftermarket support. Money is key, as it is with everything, pay to play. Put 10K into it and it will run 12’s all day, cruise comfy across the nation, and be VW Vortex approved. lol

how many miles, what trans? start with that.

LLTek, ABT, and Seibon make front lips for your car.  
They are ~$600/piece, but who cares ! At least you  
have your list of part prioritized !

for $1300 that car is a sweet pickup.

OP my suggestions are:

Je pistons: $500  
IE rods: $350  
Bearings, main studs, head bolts, gaskets, cranks seals: $500  
turbo manifold. $700  
Gt35R: $1300  
exhaust: $800  
injectors: $300  
intercooler: $800  
Tuning: $900

400 AWP

since we dont know if its an autofailic cant help you much on drive train.

coilovers and sway bars: $1200  
wheels/tires: $1600

body work and bring it back to minty fresh: $XXXX

call it a day.
