Hey Jason,
I just did this last weekend and loved the results.I found 'satin finish'
black spray paint specifically designed for re-painting auto trim in the
Autobody aisle of my local Canadina Tire. The brand was "U-Fix-It". You won't
have a Canadian Tire near you :-) Go to a place that sells auto body stuff and
look in the aisle where they have all the touch-up colours --- you'll probably
find something. If not, regular spray paint (satin finish) will probably be
fine. Just make sure your plastic is clean and dry before you paint it.
Cheers,
