The best tip there is for painting plastic is don't try it,the paint won't last long and it peels off in big sheets.As far as colors you can't go wrong with the stock gold.

'88 250R many extras

Hey man, you can paint plastic and make it stick and look good, you just have to educate yourself on the process.
