Latex Vinyl paint will do good job, just sand down the surface well, then paint.

Get the Latex vinyl paint with gloss

check my cardomain page 6 I belive, the pic of the max with the white and black interior was painted nicely.

I just used duplicolor exterior paint. "Nissan Platinum CC" from NAPA. The CC apparently stands for "needs clearcoat." So that's what I did. 3 coats of paint followed by 2 coats of clearcoat. It looks pretty sweet and so far no nicks or scratches. Finish is very smooth and mildly glossy.

People have sworn by the duplicolor wheel paint because of it's durability, but I couldn't find it in the color I wanted.

There's a good write-up in the stickies which I followed. It's all about the prep-work.
