First time I EVER did front brakes on my car, it took me 2.5 hours. It took me 3.5 hours to do the Camaro/Impala front brake swap and the GXP rear brake swap. Yes all 4 with bleeding and such. It's not hard, if you have the right tools.

A metric socket set and a large enough "C" clamp will do the trick. Front is 13mm on the calipers and 15mm on the brackets (I think, one side is stock the other side is aftermarket on my car) and the rear is either all 15mm or 15 on the calipers and 13 on the brackets.

A trick I use. After the wheel is off, before I take off the calipers, I put a lug nut on the stud. The way I turn it to put the lug on, is the same direction to take the caliper and bracket bolts off
