its really easy. get a buddy to help and you'll be done in no time. ide recommend the solo bleeders while your down there. and use gloves while working on the rotors and clean EVERYTHING before your done and drive away. you may have to bleed the brakes a few times. i bled mine 3 times. once after break in period, once after some hard ABS stops, then once just for the hell of it

It's not difficult. When I did my rotors, the hardest part was removing the caliper bolts. Everything else is straightforward. And remember to break in the pads properly.

Here is some more info about brake fluid:

You can upgrade to a DOT4 like ATE Super blue.
