Most shops won't touch that due to insurance purposes. Besides I would think it would be cheaper to just find the 5 lug conversion at the local u-pull it or other junk yards.

not at all cheaper
you forgot that in order to run 5lug you need wheels that will work with it.

drilling shouldn't be more than 50bux total.

Personally I think that is a safety issue here. More holes on a rotor, meaning more likely the rotor would fail during hard braking.

+1 Hence the quote about insurance purposes! Not safe IMO!
