Doesn't seem too bad for an EA. You could do the front pads for under $40 if you want to do it on the cheap. I can't see the whole list costing you any more than $500 if you do most of the stuff yourself.

Tommi you can get Complete disc arms with new upper/lower ball joints on them. I know my mate daniels car has them when he got the car.

Ball joints to be swapped over upper and lower can cost around $250-$400 if you take it in (Yes it sucks)

Those prices are what I reckon your average mechanic would charge, depending on which balle joints, upper lower, both ? Front brakes, is that rotors and pads if so allow $200 to do them yourself more for a mechanic. Not too bad really.
