Rear Breaks. OUCH!

Yes, I had the breaks inspected today. The cylinders WERE leaking and needed to be replaced. The drums needed to be resurfaced because they were glazed over. I am inept at rear breaks, and lack the tools, so I just had to have it done. However, I still don't notice a difference in the pedal. But for safety's sake, and peace of mind it had to be done. I guess $191 is worth avoiding the worry. But it hurts the bottom line nevertheless. I wonder what my plasma is worth. I might have to sell it.
