Default $450 USD for rear pads, rotors and labor!!!

$450 for rear pads, rotors and labor. Is that a good price or am I getting ripped off????

I have a 99 A4, 2.8 quattro.

Check out ecartoys .com for good oem replacements.. Get mintex pads and zimmerman or brembo rotors.

$620 sounds like the "going rate" for brakes. At least that's what I was getting.

ONEPOINT, off topic, how can I attach a picture so it shows up in my signature all the time?

Thanks.

Ill do it for 300!

Ecstuning.com is 128 shipped to me
Autohausaz.com is 101 shipped to me.


Regular NON slotted, NON drilled rotors.. dont get slotted/drilled.

Regular Metalmaster or Mintex pads...

DIY is easy, you just need some basic tools and a caliper press

onepoint8tee - $115 is way below the going rate for rotors and pads. You may have found a great deal, but front pads alone should cost anywhere from $50-$100, depending on what you buy.
