$420 to Replace G37S Brake Pads
Hi All,
Just a really quick question. Is $420 out the door a fair price to replace the front and rear brake pads (OEM) and "scuff-up" the rotors on a 2009 G37S? It is definitely cheaper than the price Infiniti quoted but I'm not sure if it is typical for a private auto shop in CT.
Best Regards,
Michael

Youtube. Seriously, I am my own mechanic because of the internet. If I have a problem I ask here, then once I get my answer as to what needs to be replaced I google it. 90% of the time there is a detailed youtube video about it that is either made specifically for the G's or you just have to make variant adaptions in order to make it work.

Do it yourself. I did mine yesterday. All 4 corners cost me 174 plus alittle anti squeek and about 2 hours of my time. That was for stoptech street/track pads for a g37s. Once you bed them... wow
What you need:
pads
21 mm tire iron (in your trunk)
jack
screw driver
needle nose plyers
a cloth to use between plyers, brake pads and caliper.
2 hours time.

^+8. Brakes are a very straightforward DIY with basic tools. Buying your own parts online and putting in a little of your own time will cut the cost by 2/3, easily.
While your at it grab an order or two of air and cabin filters online. Both are extremely easy to change and the online parts are way cheaper than dealer costs. Then put the money in the bank or your "fun" fund.
