Hi Randy. Yes I got them this morning. Just after I got egged at 40 mph. I haven't had a chance to have a look at them yet I am still fuming over the egg. I am going to start a post and show the damage Thanks for the pics by the way.

And for your original question! About 4 to 5 hours. But I did a bunch of other stuff too. If it was just the bezels probably about 2 1/2 hours. The lens took more time than putting the bezels on.
