what kind of paint would/did you use to paint your interior trim pieces (like around the air vent, the center console plastic surrounding the shift knob and cd player, etc.) would you just use spray paint, or something a bit more complex?

i really like to use testors model paint.(spray)
since its made for models, its sticks REALLY well to the interior plastics. i normally use 2-3 coats of primer, 3-4 color, and a bunch of coats of clear.
