From start to finish about 24 hours, but there was yard work and beers involved.

Actual time 6 hrs give or take.

I followed the DIY for the most part, but soaked the tape with WD40 to get it off and it just fell right off.

Took a bit to clean them but well worth it

I used "painters touch" paint, it was just sitting around here, semi gloss i think. did 3 coats sanding in between each one.

I used the purple delicate painters tape, took longer to mask off then anything.

If your gonna do it take your time, that chrome is VERY THIN
