Brakes for 2007 Accord

[librarybrandy.livejournal.com]

I checked the tags, and can only find recs for tire places. With that in mind, if I need front brakes and rotors for a 2007 Accord, and I don't want to pay the $600 the dealership wants BUT would still like the luxury of stopping when I need to, are there local places I can go? Has anyone had brakes done at Arco Tire & Service, in Teele? They've patched/replaced a few tires for me and have always seemed quick, affordable, and reliable, and their website says they do brakes, but... are they good? Is there somewhere else I should go?

(Or, is $600 actually the going price for brakes + rotors?)

Totally reasonable. I rationalized it as follows: "there are four brakes; I'm changing two. If I screwed up, I won't find out by being unable to stop, I'll find out by horrible noises or poor performance". If I'm still posting in a year, I was right :)
