Re: The Brembo brake kit group buy - and my inability to tell one end of a spanner from the other, how long would it take a professional to fit the above kit?

And what would be a sensible labour charge?

Cheers, Blobster.

Thumbs up

I've just done me own using a Godspeed Brembo kit, and I reckon it took me about 4 hours, BUT:
I really did take my time, numerous cups of coffee, finding tools etc etc.
I reckon a professional would do it in 2 hours at the most. Budget for new brake fluid too, and a bleed at the end.

Thanks Alcazar.

I've been quoted 4 hours from a dealer and thought that might be a bit OTT for people who do this for a living.
