Default disc brakes

probably doesnt go here but eh. so I've called 4 shops here to put disc brakes on my rear to look better when I get rims. but only one said they know of a kit and its $550. curious if that sounds about right, or any kits you know of. for the 7th gen 05' lx.

I don't think that the cable or control arms would have to change ..... maybe the proportioning valve, but a friend of mine recently put the 6th gen V6 accord brakes on his 98 civic and the proportioning valve was the same.
