    Am out of warranty with my 2002 M3.
    What can I expect to pay an Indy to install new brake pads all around?

    Depends. Most BMWs need new rotors once you wear the pads out. Depends on whether you want OE or better pads (hopefully you don't want cheap pads.) Depends on labor rate. Look to pay 1 hour per axle if you don't need rotors, 2 if you do. You should also flush the brake fluid, so expect an extra .5 hours if you need that.
