$4300 Brembo brake job...
Yep, you read right. The dealership quoted me $4300 for a brake job on my brembo coupe. Pretty sure there is still a brick of sh*t left on the service counter chair...

lol, for that price, you could drive out to SoCal and i'll do your brakes front and rear for $100 as long as you supply the parts, and you'll save about $3300 if you get all new parts.

Brakes on our cars are simple as pie... particularly if it's just pads. You can buy some aftermarket Brembo replacements such as Project Mu B-Force or Hawk pads for about $200 for front and rear.
If you need rotors, those will be somewhat expensive.. but still, not even in the realm of anything close to what they quoted.
Just do it yourself.... it's so frickin easy.

With that you get a new BBK, a case of beer, a sandwich, a filipino hooker for like a month, where does this list end?

STEALERSHIP strikes again....no surprise here!
Please, you gotta do this for every member of Driver that's been screwed by the dealerships. Take you estimate back and ask
them if this is correct, when they say yes (point to your forehead) and ask,
"Do I have STUPID written on my forehead?" Talk you your buddies/friends
and ask who do they go to when they need brakes? Find a qualified independent brake/alignment shop in your area and ask what they'd charge
for the job. Only go to the STEALERSHIP when you need warranty work
performed.
