[A4] new / used a4

I have.  You need to get all the stuff from an A6, plus buy the coilovers.  Lots of parts, lots of labor.  By the time you're doing with it all, it's at least $1800 in parts (more depending on the cost of the used parts you need and what coilovers you get) plus the labor.  You can easily spend $2500 to $3000 on this...
