Just completed my front brakes. I've done it before and found it to be pretty easy if you have any mechanical ability at all.
I'd agree with rjahl that working with the sensor cable was the most time consuming.
You can use a C clamp to push the pads back. No real need to bleed the brakes.
I kept it simple by just getting the Power Stop kit that includes everything you need. Also wanted to try slotted, drilled rotors. Pads are low dusting which is great. Price is right too at around $250 for the front axle.
Please don't flame me for the caliper covers. My wife surprised me with them. I think they look pretty cool with the Z4 logo.
