I just had two o2 sensors go out on the x today. They jag shop said it was the front two? How much and where can I find these? Can I replace them myself?

They should run abuot $20-$25 from almost any part supplier.. AutoZone, Pep Boys, O'Reillys, take your pic. It's definately something you can do yourself.. just be sure to put a little anti-seize on the thread of the new ones when installing them.

I just looked on pepboys autozone, and nappa and the cheapest for one is $85. Anyone know if theres anywhere else cheaper?

$85, eh? Ouch. Of course there may be something different or special about our that justify a considerible price increase.. Unfortuantely I wouldn't be surprised..
I'd probably say go with two from napa. They were the cheapest on a waterpump for my X ($75), and had one in stock. Napa is pretty good about having oddball things that are difficult to find elsewhere, and the prices are surprisingly not bad.

There are some things you can cut corners / costs on and some that are not wise to I guess!
