Although it wasnt me that put the ebrake up, it was my friend. I just didnt realize it was up. Thought the stock rotors were rusted onto the hub

Doing your brakes is probably the easiest thing you can do on your car and just about any one can do it. A few tips from me would be to make sure you have a can of break clean ready and dont get any grease or grime on your rotors but then again thats why you should have your brake clean for. Also its a great time to paint your calipers while you have them danglin there.
Thats also something easy to do. Just tape everything off and spray about 6-8 coats on and there you go nice shiny painted calipers. Good luck!
