EVODave does a really nice job but it's really not hard I did my headlights and they turned out nice, I used Krylon Fusion Satin black, a bit of a PIA but not that hard.

not sure if it's the same link but that's what I followed

I've read that you have to actually cut the tails off but I don't know for sure

Just remember take your time and you'll do just fine.
