Dealer quotes a Akebono BBK install
So I get a call back today from a local I dealer for an Akebono BBK install.
$2550 parts and labor.
The parts can be purchased for $1550 from Concept Z.
$1000 for labor seems very high to me.
Am I off base here?
Thanks.

That's crazy! The install really isn't much.
...although saying "$1000" labor isn't necessarily accurate unless they gave it to you in writing, but sounds like your comparing to the other source you quoted. That $1550 kit you saw online, is just that, online. The dealer is probably charging you $2000++ on the parts. Ask them to break down the quote.

The Stealership is trying to Rip you off as usual! Even $500 is high! At most 2 hrs labor & thats pushing it. If you dont feel comfortable doing it yourself then find a good local shop. Search the forum for others in your area who might be able to help you out or refer you to a shop. Since these are brand new assemble them yourself before you go in. Bring your own fluid & you should be good to go. I never go the stealership unless its warranty work.
