F30 Front/Rear Brake DIY?

I am looking to help another forum member remove his M Performance brakes and returning it to the stock setup. After a few hours of searching, I have yet to find a viable DIY with specs on the process. Would anyone know where I can find a DIY for the front/rear brake removal and re-install with torque specs?

Yep, he's selling them. That is IF...we are able to get them off.

I do greatly appreciate this and will review the ISTA PDF to see if I can make sense of it.

I'm also in Seattle and installed my M Perf set a couple of months ago using ISTA instructions. If you have questions feel free to PM. It's a straightforward job.

Honestly the hardest part is the bleeding and you need a bleeder. I would leave the rear dust shields as is because in order to remove them the rear hub must be removed.

Good luck. Wish you were local I would do it.
