and is absolutely insane for a job you can do yourself in a few hours in the driveway with nothing more than basic hand tools.

Exactly, maybe minus the brake flush but you only need a flush every 2 years and a flush on it's own is a bit more expensive than the power bleeder tool.

For the brakes it is really just simple easy tools a beginner socket set will provide.

Call the place in Connecticut that sells Foreign Car Parts, guess we're not supposed to talk about vendors specifically if they're not on here as vendors, and pay for the parts and do the work yourself. It will be the last set of brakes you'll buy for your car. You'll wallet will love you and these cars perform better when they know you have given some blood, sweat and tears...
