How hard was it to take off the reflectors from the mirrors?

You just take a flathead screwdriver to the outer edge and pry. You can have both of them removed in about 15 seconds.

I sanded mine down and painted them matte white.

The shifter was a pain no doubt. The cup ring and ring around the shifter are easy because they come off. Just stick the vinyl on top. Cut out the extra in the center. Heat it up with a heat gun and wrap it around. if someone knows a way to take the shifter out easy and separate the leather side from it I would like to know

How many coats did you do on them to get them that nice matching color of the inside?

I think you will find that the plasti-dip will wear better than you think. Remember that the stuff was designed to protect tools. The coat on my wheels is heading towards 10k mi and 6 trips to the auto-wash without issue.
