The crazy part is.. this guy who worked on it for me not only stuck with his original price.. but he took all kinds of extra time taking care of little details like finding the correct specs and turning the rotor himself(they turn rotors at the parts store for $10 - but this guy knew them so he just waltzes back there and starts showing the guy who was supposed to do it HOW to do it, and they ended up not charging me). He even packed and banded the CV boot for me at no extra charge (5 minute job but still, I appreciated it).

Even more crazy he told me if I know anyone else who needs this done he only wants $75 per side!!
