Install is straight forward. I went with the factory Akebono pads, got them discounted from Advance Auto. Plenty of other good pads out there, do a search here on the forums.

I also ordered Z1's premium SS brake lines and Motul RBF 600.

Conceptzperformance: $114 Shipped for pads
BrakePerformance: 4 Rotors $339 shipped
Z1: SS lines $124 shipped

There are a few DIY's that make great guides
