So I upgraded my base brakes with the Akebono Calipers and Z1 2 piece rotors front and back. Didn't want to trim or bend the dust shields so I bought the OEM sport ones. Front of the car real easy, remove wheel, caliper, rotor and four bolts for the hub assembly. Rear of the car you have to remove wheel, caliper, rotor, e-brake assembly, rear axel bolt and hub assembly. Pretty straight forward but some work for just dust shields. My OCD didn't allow me to bend or trim them
Here are some pictures of the rear.
