It's 300 for all the other parts to swap out and convert? If it is what it is, then so be it. How many parts are involved? Is it complicated, requiring things like new wheel hubs, etc? I am sure with Steeda's buying power, and connections to other parts vendors; the factor of economy of scale could bring the price of the kits down significantly.

My guess is that the target market would bare the cost if it isn't dramatically higher then the cost of pads and rotor's themselves. The justification has to exist, as always.
