Painting Interior Pieces

I am looking for suggestions on how to paint the speaker covers and a few other interior pieces to match the piano black dash on my 06 MCS? Any positive input or direction would be appreciated.

The tweeter covers are easy. The lower mid covers are plastic riveted in so oyu either drill them out and reayych them or do a very careful tape job. Taping is how I did it.

Everything else is pretty easy. Shift boot ring, brake handle, tach ring, etc are all fairly easy to remove.

I don't live to far from the Staines Massive!

It was acceptable in the 80's
