Is this a good price on brake service?

For complete brake service including replacing pads and all rotors($65 each)comes out to $500. Parts are OEM.

Is this a good price. I dont want to spend a lot of rotors now cause I plan on getting the brake kit later.


Thanks
Raptor

this is just for the fronts, rite? Did you see if you can resurface your rotors now?

Sounds pricey. This for your CLS?

Are there Brembo blanks for the CL-S? I think they're cheaper. ARen't OEM rotors crap anyways?

I don't think your getting OEM Acura rotors for $65 each. You might not even need the rear. See if you can get the rears just cut. Why spend that $500 now if your going to upgrade soon? Try & save on it as much as you can. Put that $$ into the brake kit.

Thinking about it. I called the dealer and to replace pads (all 4) and turn the fronts would be $285. I think maybe I should just do that. Cause I just want to get by since it will be in the garage 99% of time while I drive my beater until I put the things I want on it. I currently have 74K on there
