I busted 2 lug bolts off yesterday trying to get my lug nuts off. My car has been at the shop for 5 hours already and they have told me this replacing these bolts is a very labor intensive process. I heard the bolts themselves only cost about $5 each. How much should I expect to pay to have these 2 busted bolts replaced?

Evidently the answer is $267. I just got a call from the shop I took my car to. I should have done the repair myself. I wish the guys who worked on my wheels last hadn't over tightened the bolts. It would have saved me a lot of money!
