about 5 hours
i did it really slow.. i recommend as soon as you open the lenses cover the lenses with plastic wrap so they dont get any debris... that way you wont have to clean them and risk scratching... happend to me gonna have to open again and buff .. dont trust a "clean" microfiber cloth, make sure its clean

Yeah, I have to reopen mine and buff out the scratches and the remaining "fog" from my condensation problem some time in the future. But yeah, looks really awesome. Did you use high temp paint?
