Default brake maintenance

I'm a proud new owner of a '96 A4 and need to have new front brake pads and rotors. The rear are O.K. for a while. Can I have this work done at a typical francise brake shop safely?<p>JGC

Default compare the price with dealership service first...

..cuz it might be just $50 -$100 more. Then why not?!

Since you need so new brakes think about the cross drill rotor and the green stuff pad! the original pad create a lot of brake dust to the point that you will have to clean it every other day or so!
