Looking for aftermarket installer in Tampa FL

I am purchasing aftermarket upgrades for my front rotors and pads on my 135i and looking for an aftermarket installer to do the installation in the Tampa, FL area. Initially I was going to do the installation on my own with the help of my neighbor who has experience with doing brake installations on his Mercedes Benz, and if I cannot find any installers then I'll go this route. However, I think I'll be more at ease if done by a professional installer. When I lived in NY and had one of my M3s, I had an installer that did all my aftermarket installations for me. But so far, cannot find any down in Tampa who are willing to install parts already bought and just looking to get them installed. Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

Brakes are super easy...anybody can do them. You don't need an aftermarket installer to do brakes...honestly any automotive repair shop could install them if you don't want to do it yourself.

I've been checking the BMW repair shops (not dealerships), but did not try the regular auto repair replaces (duh!). I'll give them a try. Thanks
