My only suggestion would be to consider changing the brake lines, too. In fact, aftermarket braided/stainless versions are available for the same or less money than OEM versions. But to answer your question, there are no special procedures involved with changing the front brakes - it's one of the more elementary DIY projects for a 9000. I would highly recommend that you invest in a can of brake cleaner - especially if you use copper anti-seize on the pins or the backs of the brake pads. Somehow, I always manage to get the rotors contaminated with grease, of some sort, and brake cleaner is very cheap to insure a good result!
