Default Reasonable Price for Brake job.
What do you guys consider a decent price for changing front rotors and pads?

Default tree fiddy.
Pads: $70, rotors: $75 each, labour: 1.5 hours.

Something to that extent. Do not pay $600 for a brake job that the dealer charges.

I hear you. I've done a couple of minor repairs on my own but I wasn't going to chance repairing breaks myself. I may have to with some of the quotes I've been getting.

I didn't realize my words were being scrutinized so closely. I'll be more careful next time.

Better yet, don't pay anyone. Do it yourself.

That is of course a better option provided that you know how. Unfortunately for me I don't :-(
