Now i haven't found out what rotors or pads they quoted me for, which i plan on doing before i book an appointment. But as far as brakes the dealer seems to be a ripoff...
I'd watch for warrenty problems, like if you go somewhere else will it affect your warrenty at all?

Well I know that the dealer I go to charges about $75 an hour, vs $50 an hour from the local shop, and they also dont up the price of the parts themselves. I also feel more comfortable asking the local shop to install say, performance pads then asking the dealer to install them.
I believe when I went to the dealer and asked how much they would charge to install my TRD springs, they quoted me at about $350 or so, whereas the shop quoted me at $200. However I believe there is a standard 4 hour install process that is giving, and the shop would only charge me for the time it took, so if it only took 3 hours they would only charge me $150. Toyota however would charge me that price even if it only took 2 hours.
