What rotors and pads are they being replaced with. If its OEM then $200 less and its a good deal. You can change the rotors and pads easily yourself too.

I paid around $450 for non-OEM parts (pads and rotors) + sensors and did all the work by myself. In my experience, the OEM pads put out too much brake dust. I switched over to Axxis Deluxe pads and Centric (sp?) Premium rotors.

If you have the extra $1000 to pay for it, go for it. It took me about 2 to 3 hours to swap out the pads and rotors.
