Midus just quoted me 800 bucks for a break job.
New front breaks,
Rotors,
Kalipers

he said total would 730 bucks for a ford contour svt.

that sounds incredibly high

thats extremely high!!! You can buy a set of 13" baer brakes slotted, cross drilled, and zinc coated for $780 shipped to your door! Not to mention, installation takes about 30-45 minutes and about another 20 minutes to bleed the brakes.

Check out the Baer group buy over on www.contour.org right now. $600 for a complete Baer brake set.

im not sure how much the rotors are for a contour but i know form my focus it ran me 50 bucks a rotor and 25 for pads. nooo way it should come to $800. Be smart and grab some tools do it your self. 2 blots on each side. and a line on each caliper
