So after saving a bit of cash, and having a birthday, I've decided that the car needs something new, but I can't quite decide what.Here is what I have been looking at:
1.C/F Hood (Group buy at $400usd shipped! Doubt that can be beat=$530CDN))
2. HID's (300usd)
3. Used In Dash LCD w/ CD (Still Looking)
4. New Lip ($690CDn OUCH!)

Any ideas or suggestions?
If any local store are willing to compete with these prices, that is fine, as I am willing to spend a little more to give local business my money!
I would most likely paint the hood like the one in the pic....

hmm I would have left the hood in a single color (either all CF or ALL blue). it look odd to have part of it black...

Here is a pic of the car currently....
I thoughty the hood looked different, but it is the same as the Champion S4 race cars in the old Speedvision series

that look pretty sweet.. but at the same time I also love it just White. If I were you I would consider getting the other stuff first... LCD or HID would be sweet.

im with you, Lcd or Hid First, your car doesnt really need a lip or hood, its VERY visually appealing already:)

Yeah Audis without HIDs doesn't jive that well with me. I'd say go with those. Also i'm wondering where are you going to get them for $300US? Thats pretty cheap.. is that used?

For 300USD there are many kits on eBAY, asd well there are BRAND new OEM Audi Bosch/Hella kits on an Audi website for $280usd. I think I might be able to work out both the lights and the hood.... I'm sure there will be pictures eventually!

I'd say to keep it clean go for the HIDs. Audis should have them. ;)
