What gives?
I don't have the tools or the mechanical ability to DIY this stuff. HWW, If I subtract an hour and a half of labor from your estimate then the parts would only cost 185 dollars. 4 rotors and 4 pads for 185? That seems a little low to me. Plus, what about tax? If you are including tax in your estimate then I should subtract around 15 more dollars from the parts estimate right?
Could someone who actually either has had a similar job done or works as a mechanic and has done this job comment on the price or the parts, and the amount of labor? I felt great after first reading MJM's response, now HWW has me in a panic making me think I got ripped off by 400 dollars!
Thanks,
Brian
