Should be $150-$200 professionally installed, rotors turned, and GOOD quality pads (don't use elcheapo pads). If you haven't got a clue how to do this yourself, entrust a shop with a good reputation, such as any NAPA Auto Care Center. Your brakes are your number one safety device, and you shouldn't try to cut any corners-it might not end up so good. (don't let yourself get ripped off, either, though) If you go to your local auto parts store, like NAPA, Carquest, ect.., and politely ask one of their older or obviously more knowledgeable staff, they should be able to recommend a quality, honest repair facility to do the job for you. Try to avoid dealerships if you can-they are the ones who tend to be really expensive and try to sell you stuff you don't need. Good luck. (if you happened to live in MT, we could do it at our shop)

For some stupid reason, the pads for a Malibu are more than the average car.

If you do it yourself about $30. If you let a mechanic do it, it could cost anywhere from $60 to $300.

Probably about $100. If just needing pads. Most places might try to sell you everything related to the brakes, so be weary.

That depends. If you're putting them in yourself they can cost as little as $30. That's for a set of four (two wheels).
