Shouldn't be nearly that expensive. I replacement my driver's side front door lock actuator a couple years back. Got a remanufactured one off eBay for about $100, but you should be able to find brand new ones for under $200. Try here:

Also don't be surprised if it ends up taking you around 1 hour to get the job done yourself.

1.5 hours shop time probably isn't too far off. Think it look me about an hour to replace mine, but the dealer's usually going to add a little extra time for pulling the car in and out and the cleaning up afterwards. So $500 something from the dealer installed sounds about right. Figure on $300 something for the part, plus 1.5 hours labor at ~$150/hour, so maybe $525 total. Your obviously definitely better off doing it yourself if you have the ability to do so.

Looks good! I have a 12 that looks identical to yours. It's an add version though. Let me know how the K&N drop ins work.

The door lock has been fine since the other day, so I'm going to live in denial and say it was definitely just an off day and I won't have to spend the money on the car soon.

Test fit one of my coupe wheels, gonna toss the springs on this weekend and wheels. Still sourcing the other parts for my akebonos as well. I installed my spacer up front as well. Seems to be a bit wide with the spacer
