Shadezz had his ss brakes done by a dealer buddy I believe, but the install is SUPER easy. (the hardest part is jacking standing all 4 corners, which probably is not strictly necessary) I put on my lines then bled the brakes (you need a buddy to do it). 5000 miles later absolutely no leaks or problems. The brakes feel great. Plenty of DIY vids around the forum. If you have a buddy it is probably about one easy hour. Just be careful to not strip your hardware (use good quality wrenches is all)

I asked some guys at brakes plus if they wanted to put them on, but they wanted 200 bucks!!! Screw that! I think Shadezz might know a guy that can give you a better deal...

One bit of advice, if you are bleeding the brakes anyhow, take the opportunity to replace your brake fluid with RBF600 (it is much better/safer at high temps like you might encounter at the track) get 2 bottles to be sure you have enough, and have some extra for later top offs.
