Default Does this seem right?

Had called up the dealer today (probably not the best idea) to get some stock and price info on brake pads and rotors for front and rear.
For the whole get up it would cost me an est. $560 for everything accept install.

I'm not sure if thats too high or just about right for brakes, what should I really expect for oem though?

For them to take care of everything parts and labor wise, roughly $980.

Think i'd be better off upgrading?

Sounds about right....

Most likely all 4 don't have to be serviced at the same time. Usually the fronts go first then the rears.

I heard on this car the rears often go first. Atleast this was the casse for me.

Yup, That sounds about right.

I as well am deciding what way I want to go. I don't know for sure my rotors are warped so I will probably just try pads first.

The parts from hardtopguy would be $468 plus shipping so it's not too far off.

I may get flamed for this, but when mine went out..I bought the replacments from EBAY came out to 250ish with pads and rotors front and back. This was over 2 years ago, and I have not had any problems.

Holy bat feces...my overpriced race gear is cheaper than that. Do it yourself in a couple of hours...the first time.

Stock is fine and it would cost you 20 for great fluid, 20 for adj/tools, 60-70 per disk for centrix, and pads are 70 or less per pair.
