Default Painting car interior??

This question may seem dumb to you guys, but im young and dont have a lot of car knowledge yet.

So I just bought an armrest for my EG. the armrest is tan and my interior is black. the top part of the armrest is vinyl and the base is plastic. So I was planning to scrub it with a brillow pad and some degreaser, then spray paint it with vinyl paint with a few coats. my question is: should I be using a different type of paint for the plastic base? and also what is the best high friction vinyl spray paint, because my elbow is gonna be rubbing the top alot?

sell the tan and buy a black. they arent that expensive.

or paint the bottom black with SEM landeu black and re-cover the pad with a black material so it doesnt get rubbed off. i dont thnk there is a paint that isnt gonna rub off over time.
