Default Quick Question

What do stealerships usually charge in your area (especially if your in Canada) for brake pad/rotor replacement for the standard break package on the Z (non brembos)?

Sorry for being a noob and not doing this type of work myself haha.

The dealers will rape you on the parts. Find a reputable repair shop if you're unable to do it yourself.

Been a member for 19 months and do not have a local shop to take care of your car? Sad.

Buy some new pads and fly my girlfriend and I to Canada and consider it done! We need a vacation, haha. I'll even give you 4 freshly resurfaced OEM rotors that I have laying around

In all reality, if you're considering dealer parts/labor cost for everything, then my option is the cheap route! Dealer work isn't worth the money, and most of the time they don't even do it right, its sad.
