Default Seibon Diffuser and IJDMToys LED reflector install

Hi Guys,


I am just curious, how long you think it will take to install Seibon Diffuser and IJDMToys LED reflector? I am getting a shop to do it but i have a meeting to attend so just trying to estimate the time. Thanks.

I would say the diffuser took me 2 - 2.5 hours but that's mostly because stuff didn't line up and lots of little modding. A professional shop should be way less than that.
I imagine reflectors barely take any time once the bumper is off (which you need for the diffuser anyways).

I just got it done...Total took them around 2 hour for both install. The alignment was good but they remove my bottom cover. I had to find a way to put it back together with some zip tie.

haha....i love lights lol...the fitment was good but can't beat OEM. The shop took my under cover off because it didn't fit the diffuser. I had to find a way to put it back on with zip ties lol...kind of ghetto but gets the job done and no one will see the bottom anyway.
