That paint is not well done, I like the colour matching, but it looks like it was put on way too thick and runny and its covering the original texture of the plastic.

I would brush it off with turps and an old toothbrush + give it a real good clean with Jif and hot water and then respray it with 3 light coats in a dust free room with the nozzle about 10 inches away from the plastic with a couple hours drying time inbetween coats.

Not sure about that shift knob/ringthing either.
