I doubt you'll get it done that fast. Paint takes time to dry, not to mention prep work like sanding.

hey hans, i think benson at pt maxi (the one with 350z) has a friend that does it. benson's 350z lights are done by him so you can ask him if he had any problems.

here is the craigslist link!

if you want a quality job the shop most likely will ask to have your lights for 2-5 days even

GL and post some pics when you get it done...

this has been discussed before. But why not do it yourself? It's alot cheaper and not that hard to do. This took me 2 days to do...
