I did that last year, and had no fingerprints by the end of it

I recommend you follow up with the Billet polish, gives it a little extra!

The polished lips make one hell of a difference though!

Your car is coming along nicely . I was debating if I should get the OEM window visors or not, but they look pretty nice on SSM.
