I need front and rear brake pads as well as a new AC compressor. A buddy of mine that used to work at acura quoted me $220 for the front pads, $81.58 for the rear pads, and $677.72 for the compressor. $250 labor.

Does that seem fair? Or should I look around somewhere else?

Im justnspace for finally getting a new avi and jay the only thing you have to worry about is getting his crabs so take his offer.

The Ac compress needs to be evac properly and not into the air.
