Unhappy Need New parts, but where?

I have a 2001 A4 B5 1.8t Turbo Quattro with the whole shenanigans and add ons i have found it to be almost impossible for me where i live to get this dang car fixed since i had been hit back in october, I am a previous Mustang owner and Enthusiast so i am completely new to the Euro world and quite frankly already tired of the cultures ridiculing and outrageous pricing on parts.

any help as to where i can get brand new OEM or after market parts both stock and JDM for this car would be greatly appreciated.

Also i just want to know if i got ripped off... I bought this car well used, its in fairly immaculate condition when i got it all leather the whole sport package with bola exhaust and with just over 108,000 miles on the car we payed 4,895$.....thoughts?

I wouldn't say you got ripped off, but definitely paid on the upper end of what it is worth. For comparison, I paid $6500 for the same thing 6 1/2 years ago. With that said, nice examples of these cars have held their value remarkably well.

As for parts, you will have to be specific as to which part you want. A good starting place is genuineaudiparts.com which will have OEM parts at a discount. ECS Tuning is also a good site to use.

And I am confused about what a JDM part for your Audi is? I hope you aren't putting JDM parts on it!

Yes, i am considered to be a Hoonigan, I do Rally my A4 and love it. haven't found a better car besides my mustangs. so yes i am looking for JDM parts for street and rally racing.

Currently i am looking to replace both front breaks with an off road Sport breaks. also looking for front bearings and control arms (sport) also in need of a few other minor details and soon looking for a tuning chip!

Please, please quit "rallying" your beautiful car!

If you want to do that, and Audi's are of course good for it, go buy a beater for $1000 and beat the **** out of it. Plenty of long time B5 owners would love to have a car that is in as good of shape as yours is in.
