Edition 1 headlights conversion

Heres some pic while I was doing it, the orange thingy will be wrapped with 3m matte black, and as you can see, the headlight housing is GREY and not black, so I'll repaint all the grey to black, and the round halo thingy will be RED!!! it should look pretty awsome.

how long would it take to just remove the orange reflector from my light ?

do you have to remove the headlight to do this ?

do you have to drill anything ? do you have to reseal anything ?

pic with bumper and everything on will be...........2 weeks???
but these lights are pretty damn nice, I am thinking doing it on my SL

to anyone who is thinking of doing this, I highly recommend wrapping the orange reflector like I did over spray paint, 3m scotchcal matte black is what I used, looks really thin and smooth.
