I wish I could do that on my 06 LX, but I have a feeling it won't be cheap!

Honestly Ill Get It For Pretty Cheap Working For The Dealer But I Think For Someone To Pay Normal Cost Your Probably Looking At Around 6-800 Bux, Which Isnt Really That Bad, Especially If You Plan To Auto Cross At All

X026092 is on a distinguished road
For $600-$800 you might have well bought the EX instead LX.

But If You Baught An Ex Instead Of An Lx, You Would Be Paying Almost 2 Grand More, And An Ex Is Almost 500 Lbs More Than An Lx, Which If You Intend On Racing Thats Not A Good Thing, Especially Since It Aint Like The Old Days And The Lx Has As Much Beef As An Ex

if you're tryin' to justify the cost, just wait until you need brakes done... that'll take off about a hundred bucks... 'cause it'll come w/ new pads and such and voila brake job done... also i believe most new cars say you're supposed to change the brake FLUID (i thought it was odd but i did it anyway on my subaru) at 60k...... which you would have to do if you converted the rear brakes... so all in all if you do the swap at 60k you'd be saving about 150-200 bucks on maintainance if you were to normally have it professionally done.....
