All I needed was some sand papers, regular spray paint bottle that's for car interior (found in any auto shops), Gloss spray (if the colored spray isn't already glossed), water, soap and a piece of rag. Now You need to take all the parts you want to spray paint out of the car. Then use the sand paper the remove the factory gloss they have on them. Then wash them with water and soap and dry them with the rag. Then let them sit until they're completly dry. After they're dry, use the spray paint on them (do not hold the spray paint bottle less than 6 inches from the parts), when done, let them dry completly. After they're dry, you can now use the gloss paint on them to give them the shiny look you want. Let them dry and you all set. You can now replace all the parts back in the car and enjoy your car's new look
