Seriously!? I just sorted my front ones out (not painted, just getting them working) on a concrete floor at a mechanic friends. No fancy equipment or premises, had no idea what I was doing beforehand, and didn't manage to screw up, and my background is in IT.
BCS definitely a place to avoid, and another tick for Pro Calipers.
