I don't think you should do it yourself if you don't have much knowledge of it. You should take help from some professionals.

Check my how to article on brake change under my sig below. If you changed brakes before, rotors are just one extra step only.

As for bleeding your brakes, make sure you work with someone unless you have a pressure bleeder. There are plenty of articles online, but just make sure that when you pump the brakes, not to press all the way down or you will damage your brake master cylinder. Basically one person pumps the brake a few times and holds it down. When he says Down, the person by the wheel opens the brake line, letting fluid out and close. Repeat.. that the basic idea. There are different order as to which brake to bleed first, every model is different so check before. goodluck

Any feedback on the zimmermann cross drilled rotors, akebon pads combo would be appreciated as the is one combo that I am considering. Is the Akebono pads the Euro Ceramics? Do they squeal or dust a lot? Stopping power and fade? Thanks
