Any gotchas before I do the brakes on my 2016 6 GT?

I absolutely detest doing brake jobs. In my life I've done brake jobs on the following:

• 81 626
• 04 Mazda 6
• 96 Miata

- and maybe my 92 Saturn SL, don't remember for sure.

Every single time the job has been a nightmare.

But this summer I've been spending far, far too much money and I need to try and save wherever I can, so I'm considering doing the front brakes on my 6 myself instead of giving my mechanic the job.

Are there any 'gotchas' I need to worry about? I recall on my Miata there is something about needing to back out a piston with an allen wrench instead of just pushing on it, for example.

Thanks,
Steve
