How much does it cost to change front rotor?

Guys,
I'm having issue when braking @ ~60mph; the steering wheel shakes. I need to get new front rotor. I'm looking at getting front rotor and brake pads from Excelerate. My question is how much do mechanic usually charge for installing front rotor and brake pad. The mechanic quote me $80 if it's not press; $200 if it's press. He said he's not sure if the TL rotor are pressed or not. Does anyone know? Does that sound reasonable price for installing new rotor? Unfortunately, I dont have any experience or tools to do this on my own. I would like to get this done asap; the problem has been going on for about a month or so already. Thanks for the help.

If that's the case, is there anyone locally here that can help me? Afterward, I'll treat you out to lunch/dinner depending on the time.
