are you repainting them black for a fresh look? if so get krylon semi-flat or trim paint from your local autoshop or walmart carrys it to i think...or are you tryin to paint them to match the color of your car?.. if your doing that u can go to a autopaint shop and they can mix u up a rattle can of anything you want for like 15-20 bucks tho..i think the price is rite for a perfect match tho

 

yea i wanna match the paint on the car like the ex's and si's came factory with.
yea. my dad said the price looks right for auto paint,
i just want it to look good. thanks

 

Why not leave them then u wont worry about messing up paint

 

told you many times, i dont like how it looks. not worried about messing up paint.

 

what u need to do is take off your gas door, take it to the paint store in your area so it to them so they can mix the correct tint of color u need so it matches peerfect. as for painting the plastic there are a few step u need to take to prep that plastic properly so the paint sticks. when u are at the paint store grab 2 3m red pads, plastic adhesian promoter (comes in a spray can), and your paint. then take off moldings and handles, was with soap and water, then scuff surfaces, spray promoter, seal, base then clear perfect job that will last. if u dont get the promoter the paint might come out nice but it will peel off in the future.

 

^^ thank you, already know all that stuff.
