Bay area brake shop recommendation

Can you anyone recommend a shop that will just do the labor for rotors, pads, sensors, and brake fluid. This is for front and rear of R53 with me providing all the parts.

Some shops increase the labor rates because they lose profit on selling you the overpriced parts.

Been quoted anywhere from $300-400 in labor costs so far, but $200 seems more reasonable. Am I wrong?

btw, I don't have the time or tools to do it myself.
