Color Match Plastics

Anyone have any experiance painting all the plastic fender trim and such?
Or maybe wraping them?

I figure as long as the proper primer and paint is used it should be ok.

I can just imagine me cursing on that trim when I get wax all over it...

I use Meguiars Gold Class Trim Detailer on the black plastic trim. It gets wax off and makes the trim look very clean.

Although just for pure aesthetics, I'd be interested to see what painted trim looks like.

A local Countryman here (and also on this forum "bignose13" ) had theirs done with the jcw aero kit:
