front pads/rotor is a simple DIY (so are rear, for that matter), take off the wheel, take off the caliper (like 4 hex bolts), hang it from the spring with a bent coat hanger or strong zip tie, careful not to kink the brake line, there is a small torx set screw holding the rotor on, soak it with PB Blaster, let it sit, then take it off. Order the parts off the internet, including a new set screw (b/c you may have to strip it to get it out).
There are torque values to re-torque the caliper bolts, pretty high, if you want I can check my manual over the weekend. You can do the rotors quicker than you can drive it to the shop and back, its seriously only 5 bolts. Put a little caliper grease on the sliders of the caliper while you're down there.
Good luck.
