Alliance BBK Install

I recently received my Alliance BBK kit (8/6, 14" rotors) and am itching to get it installed! some of the shops I have talked to for installation are quoting me 5-8 hours of labor which I think is crazy especially at some of these shop rates.

Does anyone know of a good DIY so that I could do it on my own if possible? Or better yet could someone help me out? I will buy beer and pizza

What were you asking about again, I was too busy drooling over your sick BBK!



When I got my front BBK installed by a reputable shop (I did the rear BBK myself later) it was about $150, and I had a couple of other things done on the car as well.

SoCal is amazing, here in Maryland you'd be hard pressed to find anybody to do a full BBK install for under $500!

That's a really good price. Shops were pricing the labor at 1.5 hours per caliper/rotor...seems a bit long
