haha some of those labor/parts are ridiculously too much.

$546 replace rear struts : just to replace TWO struts?
$379 replace parking brake cables : are you kidding me? It's not like the lines were sitting on top of the gas tank.
$678 rear brakes, flush cooling system : Please dont tell me that you ONLY replaced the pads. So that was about $350 for brakes and $350 for coolant flush?
$194 replace distributor o-rings : the shop that charged you for all of these labor/parts probably felt they hit a gold mine with you. O-Rings won't run you up more than $30. So they've charged you $164 for labor when they're already working on the distributor?

I love how you've got the clutch bushing replacement + antenna for $319 and a simple little oil pan gasket for $399. Either you've been charged up the a$$ and not know it or you're pulling the BS card.

This will help you. Http://www.mr2oc.com

Looks like it was all done at a dealership... dealers tend to charge up the @$$
