I'm looking for opinions on DIY or having a small-town independent shop replace my rotors/pads on Brembo 06mt. I have stop-tech slotted rotors and rotora pads en route.

Any resources on DIY out there; I haven't found any in my exhaustive search?

Also, what is a good price for brake fluid flush if I have the fluid already?

For your next "exhaustive search" may I suggest the 3G Garage?

the key to easy install is the proper tool to compress the pistons all at the same time
A good honda/acura shop should have one
There are ways to do it without the special tool- just be reallly careful not to damage the calipers or pop a piston out the opposite side

Note- the 2 allen head bolts on the back of the caliper are NOT to be touched!!!!
they hold the caliper together

All you need to remove is the 2 normal bolts holding the caliper to bracket
When you put it together, put some anti sieze where the rotor meets the axle, and of course proerly clean and grease the sliders and contact points on the pad backs-just look at the old ones for wear marks and apply grease in those areas
