Callahan's,
Got a set of rotors and pads for my Audi from them for just under $200. Took them to a local mechanic, labor was just over $200. Have been pleased so far, we'll see how long they hold up.
It sure beat the $1,800 the dealer quoted.

It's literally one of the easiest repairs you can do on a vehicle.

You would be better off:
Going buy
3 ton Floor jack: $85-99
2 jack stands: $25.00
Front brake pads at Autozone or O'Reily: $39
Doing it yourself in less than an hour and having a new Floor jack and jack stand for future use.

Doesn't AutoZone typically loan parts for repairs for free?

Tony Lee on Siegen is great. Gordon is the man.
But, is say try to tackle it yourself. Legit all you need is maybe 2 wrenches, jack, 1 jack stand. (Can get by with just a jack). I recently changed mine on my F-150 and I think it took me about 20 min per side. I bought some pads from Autozone and they do the job.

Don't forget the C-clamp for the caliper; I did & it made the job a bit harder.

Go with ceramic brake pads. No brake dust. Unless you're driving a high performance sports car ceramic will provide you with adequate stopping power.

Don't buy the cheapest pad, it creates so much dust on your rims.
