It's not tricky, and is too expensive. Get a set of decent rotors and some Pagid pads and go hard. I just replaced all rotors with high carbon rotors, and Pagid pads all round, for about $800. Yours runs bigger front rotors and different pads, though prices shouldn't be that much different.
Also, get your car away from the dealer, they are hopeless, as shown by thinking front brakes are tricky. If you can't do the work yourself, find a VAG specialist and take it there, they will actually give a **** about your car, rather than trying to seperate you from your money.
