Default Interior trim painting

Had an idea today about spraying all the trim bits around the stereo, heater vents etc & also the sti trim round the gear lever.
A couple of reasons for it the trim round the radio has rubbed off slightly & the Sti trim round the gear lever has been scratched.
Thought it would look good all the same colour, probably try and match the grey from the foglight stickers. Perhaps do the Sti in pink as well but not sure that's going to far?
Just after opinions & also if anyone has painted the plastic trim got any tips?

I have painted my trim,did mine matt black make sure you use plastic primer and give it a wipe with panel prep or meths befor you start.Then start spraying i lightly sanded inbetween coats so it would give a smooth finish i suggest using 800 wet and dry then 1000-1200 on the top coat its easy once you get started just dont spray to much on in one go do loads of light coats
