Default Sounds like about half of typical dealer cost. So go for it if they are reputable.

I plan to be doing this myself to save some $$. I think I need to organize a TBR Party! TBR = Timing Belt Replacement

Default including parts right?

if so then yes that is a good deal, although i think i got one of the lowest deals on the board(aside from doing it yourself!)
i had the audi dealer do it for $570 with parts.
