Anywhere from $20.00 to a little over $60.00(oem). If you did not have any vibration when braking or any abnormal noises the rotors do not NEED to be resurfaced and certainly do not need to be replaced.If they do vibrate or make noise all brake rotors have a minimum thickness that they can be machined to. A tech will mic them and check for runout(warpage) before resurfacing.Stay away from metallic and ceramic pads they will destroy the rotors on your Honda.

You should never replace just the brake pads. When doing a brake job also replace the rotors as well as the underlying problem may be the rotors in the first place. If the pads are worn out chances are the rotors are as well. Honda parts have come down in price in recent years and allot of aftermarket parts are readily available now. Pads approximately $30-50, rotors for a pair $75-100. The rotors used to be held in place by machine screws which always had to be drilled out and replaced due to corrosion. So it might not be a diy job unless you have the tools. Sometimes you can get a brake job done as a package at your local REPUTABLE SHOP fairly cheap.
Good luck.

Front pads come in 4 grades
Cheep( 20) last about 10000-12000
Mid grades or semi metallic( 25-40) last 20-40000
Lifetime or full metallic(40-60) last 40-maby 60000
Ceramic 60-80000 ( 60-100)
All this depends on how you drive( a lot of stop and go city driving)
Or highway
The price also depends on where you live some places cheaper others more money.
These prices also doe's not include installation.

$20-50 for the pads depending on quality and about $100 per Axel to install, assuming the rotors are not scored ad do not need to be turned or replaced. To be sure call a few shops for estimates and warranty.

anywhere from $20 and up. maybe around $35 for the semi-metallic pads. i don't know how much a shop would charge for labor.

try www.napaonline.com and see how much they are. Your car probably had ceramic pads from the factory.
