Sounded a bit pricey to me, but what do i know. So do you guys think this price is good, bad, fair, mediocre?

However I heard the install is not so hard on these, I wonder

if there's a DIY on this, because I would love to do it myself.

where did you purchase your rotors from? u got a link? i'm trying to get rotors as well

most shops charge close to 100/hr so 150 or more to do the brakes is a decent offer..Expect to pay 300 for rotors and pad replacement front and rear.

$150 is very reasonable. It equates to roughly an hour and a half of labor.

Also installing rotors and replacing brake pads is not terribly difficult, but does require the investment in a floor jack and jack stands. It'll run you around $200. Both this forum and BavAuto have terrific DYI guides for brake work.
