How long for body kit install at VPC?

My new vehicle is to arrive at Charleston this Friday and is going to have the JCW Aero Kit installed at the VPC before shipping to the dealer. MA says "about a week" for it to be done. If it takes a full week, my car will probably spend Christmas parked in a truckstop parking lot on a trailer, if it gets done sooner, I could have it in the days before. Anyone who's had it done want to tell me how long it took in real days? thanks.

3 days for my install. The story I got was that they don't rush the job since they are concerned about ensuring paint color match. I have a Laser Blue MCS and historically they did have some color variation with this color in the past.

Thanks for the estimates. I know that Chili Red kits are available pre-painted, I hope they would use that as opposed to painting mine but you never know...
