Who would you let work on your brakes?

I was wondering since my brakes are about to give out at any moment, and out of curiousity where do you guys usually take your max's to get brake work done and are they good?

MYSELF my dealership is not too cool, so I do all my crap myself - you can do them, they aren't too rough - and a LOT cheaper..

On a difficulty scale of 1 to 10, this is a 2 WITHOUT a repair manual (a 1 with one).

Do this one yourself, the confidence you gain will have wanting to attempt more.

my, my self amd I. Changeing the pads is very easy, and it gives you some extra self confidence when working on your car.
