    Overnight or 2 day shipping usually isn't "to much" more. Then you get what you want instead of settling for something else.

    Yeah, should have planned better and gotten the R1 concepts for $126 shipped over the Duralasts ($94.5). I really wanted to just get the factory ones resurfaced, but that didn't pan out and my miscalculation cost me. I really needed to get the brakes done without any more delays.

    BTW next day shipping is $35 so best to plan better.

    My total:

    - Factory pads from Merlin $100 shipped
    - Wheel/hub seals $10 (Had to get one from autozone (Timken $6) and one from O'Reillys (Masterpro $4), each had only one, same part number 710168)
    - Mobil 1 Synthetic Grease $7
    - Labor $150 for front pads/rotors install and bearing repacking
