usually my shop charges as follows....
pads and re-surface 149.99 including OEM pads
New rotors and pads 400 per axle.... all OEM parts
Brake fluid flush usually 79.99
lines usually dont change much so it would probably vary by car

Tony @ Performance Nissan quoted me 6 hours labor to install Stoptech stage 2 including fluid change, or Stoptech stage 1 + oem rotors.
6 hours sounds a little rediculous to me, but he said that it was firm.
What should I tell them? I want everything to be done perfectly and I don't mind paying if it's legit. But if it's 3 hours install then 3 hours smoke break, I'm going to be pretty pissed.

I have not done the upgrade on a 350, but on another car, I had to modify the spindle for the larger daimeter rotors. Still took less than hours, but if you don't want to pay that much, find another shop. Brakes are easy.
