Looking for some advise on installing a set of Wilwood calipers and Rotors. Currently considering 2 options. 1. Find someone that has some experience installing brakes and have them give me hand doing the install myself. 2. Find a local speed shop that can do the install. Any advice on 1 or 2 would be appreciated.

i would say go with option 2 (going to a shop).. brakes are a big part of the car.. and can save your life you dont want to take the chance of having something improperly installed right?
a shop would be the best way to go since the people have a lot of experience with brakes and such... just my thoughts..

It's a pretty simple FIY job. 2 hours tops even for newbies (not suggesting that you are). You do need the service manual and a tool to compress the brake piston flush w/ the inner caliper wall. Then again, that tool may not be nec. since the pistons should be that way in a new set.

You do need a second person to help with bleeding the brake fluid, assuming the brake kit comes with stainless steel brake lines.

Oh yeah, you'll need impact wrench to do the rotor bolts as well.

Thanks for the advice. The plan is to listen to both of you. Brakes are a bit on the "better get this right" list, so i plan on having a shop do the work. But from PhychoBen's description of the install, I am going to make sure the maximum anyone charges me for the install is for 2 hours.
