Painting my Clubman rear exterior C Columns

Hi All, I wanted to get some ideas on what paint to use to paint my exterior rear C columns on my Clubman. My rear bumper got hit last night and the bumper is going to be repaired and repainted to black. Has anyone painted the plastic exterior parts? What paint did you use?

Thanks,

Parker

It's not the paint per-say, it's more the flex-agents and proper primer that's used.
Are you doing the c-pillar trim or is the repair shop?
If the shop, a knowledged body shop will take the correct steps to have the paint adhere to the plastic pieces.

Thanks,
