i think if your using that vinyl/interior spray, i dont think you need primer. i would get one of those scuff pads to open up the leather a little to accept the paint some more

not sure but is there any way that you can pull that piece off and just get some black "pleather" and a local shop and re do it yourself...it might look a lot better then painting it...
