Few sheets of sand paper, primer, paint. And masking tape to mark areas you dont want to spray.

use some fine wet and dry paper as the material is quite soft and can scratch easy with sand paper, just depends how good you want it to look, its all in the prep! :y:

Make sure you use plastic primer & a good 1 to use is Halfords filler primer as it fills in slight imperfections.

remember to take ur time on the prep, make sure you sand all the texture down first, if you don't the end product will look terrible
