I did the same thing about 6 months ago, something everyone should do...Lancers are especially easy, nothing to tape off, there's a seperate housing that comes right off, then you pop out the clear lense covering the blinker and spray away with even coats. Depending on number of coats, few hours should be more than enough time.

AHHHH!! Those look awesome, I wish I wasn't such a b*tch about taking my headlights apart. I may have to attempt this next week when I have a day off. I keep seeing it done and I'm finally gonna do it, soon.
Looks great
