Re-Upholstering Interior.....

I plan to start re-upholstering my interior sometime next year and I'm getting some info regarding how go about it. I pretty much am gonna lay down some new high-density stuff from fbodycarpet.com and have the seats re-done with leather. The only part I havn't figured out what to do with is the plastic interior pieces. My car is green with the tan interior, so I would imagine the best way to do it would be to spray paint them again.

I have a few concerns with the spray painting though. First is that I would think that it would be obvious that it has been spray painted, and look kinda cheap. Second, does the paint rub off easily? Is there any kinda of clear coat you can use to seal the paint in and the dirt and grime out?

we use a plastic coat type paint to paint plastic pieces....we clean them first and then paint. Then use a heat gun to get the paint to really stick....some items will need many coats....
