Gday mate, its really quite easy. Just don't go over the top or it'll look tacky and cheap. Also make sure you use a good quality paint and plenty of clear coat.
All you'll need is Screwdrivers 380 grit wet n dry sandpaper 2000 grit " " " " Some plastic primer spraypaint Ur chosen colour in a good plastic/vinyl spray paint Same type of clear coat. Around abouts 6 hours. Basically remove the bits u wanna do, wet sand them well with the 380 grit, then wet sand them again with the 2000 grit. Allow to dry completely obviously. Lay down a good even covering of the plasti primer. Then a light coat of ur colour, then another coat, and a third if needed. Then u should atleast lay down 2 coats of clear or more if u like. (Obviously giving them a good amount of time to dry between each coat). Allow to dry preferably overnight would be the better idea. Now ud want to carefully pop them all back into place and enjoy! --------------------  |
