Default DIY Brakes and wheel bearings - any advice?

Hi, I'm about to tackle the brakes and bearings on my 02 A4 1.8t and was wondering is anyone has any advice or tips for a smoother installation. I got the Schwalben piston tool for pushing the pistons back in, and I am NOT going to install the rear wheel bearings myself, as I have been warned that that is a big project and best handled by the shop. Anything to be aware of while installing or bleeding or ??? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

PS- got the basic kits from ECS with Zimmerman rotors and Red Box pads - any opinions on these?

Thanks!

Mike
