Just wondering if factory door handles, air dam and upper bumper cover are paintable or if it would be better to just get different paintable parts?

Plastic that was not meant to be painted usually will tell you by chipping off the paint even with a hi pressure car wash, maybe if you sand it down to get a rough surface, donīt know what else to tell you.

As do I. I'll ask my cousin's painter what he thinks. I gotta go by the shop today anyhow to see if they've started pulling my dents.
