Hey,
I have an 03 coupe and my new brake pads/rotors arrived.
Before I call around, what is a reasonable price to swap my old ones for the new ones?
I live in Toronto, Canada.
...and how much is a reasonable price to pay to get my calipers painted (too lazy to do it myself)
Thanks!

 

Shouldn't cost much more than couple hundred to have them installed. I'm really sorry for anyone that's too f....lazy to paint there own claipers with a rattle can of high heat paint! They're off the car what could be easier?

Thanks for the reply.
I don't know, depending on the price I guess I might.

 

You should install them yourself. You'll save a few hundred bucks and it's a fairly simple and straight forward installation. Just look up some DIY's online.

 

1 Bajillion doll hairs

 

It's considerably less than that - or my mechanic was being really nice to me.

I got the parts from TireRack for the front, labor was $120 here in the SF Bay Area, so yours should be less because everything around here is MORE EXPENSIVE THAN NORMAL.

Like gas..

and food...

and rent...

 

I got front rotors and pads installed for $50. So I'd say find someone for close to $100 bc I know Canadians like to rip people off lol

 

Hmm I was just quoted $250 for front and rear

 

It's super easy man.... harden the hell up and do it yourself.

 

No way bro. It actually might be MORE than I said and I don't know why your mechanic was being nice to youuuuuuuuu... Hmmm... Haaaaaaaa!

 

It's very simple and straight forward, should tackle the project yourself!
