So do you take a grad cert. in to the FSDO? is that how this works? My CFI expires at the end of this month, I better get crackin.

Yes, call your FSDO and verify they'll have someone there to sign you off. It took all of 10 minutes while I was there. Oh yeah, avoid any known "break" times and "lunch" times. It will be a ghost town during those hours.

Mine exp. on 11/30. If i GO IN 11/29 am I going to have the same expiration date?

You can go up to 3 months early and still keep the same expiration date, which is always the month. Early is always better than later!!!!!!(And I'm a procrastinator, so I never follow my own advice in this regard). I've cut it too close several times.

I was quoted $10,500 for my PPL with 25 hours of ground school and 35 hours with an instructor and 5 hours of solo. I don't know a whole lot about this field since I am a newbie but that seems expensive to me?

Are you effing kidding me that someone expressed an interest in flying on a pilots message message board in the flight training area during a discussion about CFI renewals and NO ONE bothered to at least answer beyond to basically say "Umm yeah this subject doesn't pertain to you"????

I hope someone PMed some info, maybe directed thenm to the correct forum of at least say "Heya, welcome..got questions ask away!"
