do a search on this. been covered many times.
u need to prob sand it to remove small inperfections, and then use a plastic primer, then spray paint. But remember, lots of light coats will produce a better finish than fewer heavy coats.
Some prefer to use a clear gloss to finish off too:D

black bottom bits are pretty flexible, not sure if a spraypack paint will stay on.
If mixing paint the pros would add some plasticiser to the paint.

Bottom door sills: Remove these from the car
Rub back to a rough feel
Use spary putty leave for 24 hours
Rub with 400 then smooth off with 1200 then prime leaving this to dry 3 - 4 hours
Add first coat leave until dry, then 4 more light coats leave until paint is tacky dry the clear coat 2 light coats....
put back on car then gentley buff.
