Quite a while, maybe 1 1/2 years. This part until now cost me a small fortune, about $7000 just to do what you see. Labor was $3500 and with some new body panels and parts it got expensive FAST. The paint alone was $260 for a gallon (1 gallon covered it thank God) and with all the clearcoat and all that it was $600 total for the paint supplies. I'm gonna put it in my garage and recover a bit before I start a new section.....it will be hard to wait though."
