CV Joints

My personal opinion is to not let midas look at my car .. let alone work on it .. but that's just me

Generally speaking it is usually cheaper to install a remanufactured half-shaft then to replace individual CV joints. Get a price on those from a local parts store, then decide for yourself if the shop is charging a fair price. GW

Yes, that is high. It should cost about $300 to $350.

The way that Midas works is that they quote a high price, then if you start to walk out, they cut the price a bit so that you think that you are getting a deal. They'll say something like "we're trying to justify keeping this location open, so we'll give you 10% off". If the customer bites, then they're still making a killing.
