Hi guys. All the plastic bits on my exterior, such as the bumper trims, and the side plastic bits, I want either blue or White (my colour scheme), but as my 206 is a horrible green colour, not sure whether blue or White is best, and what the best way of colouring them. Whether to vinyl wrap them, sand, primer and spray them, or what any suggestions would be helpful

If I was to do mine again I would have a stab at plastidip. You can always change the colour if you don't like it.
Assuming you don't know what it is its essentially vinyl wrap you can spray through a can.

I've decided to keep them black, and what's the best way of getting them a glossy shiny black, because they're that dull grey/black after 13 years of British weather

Soak them in dirt diesel engine oil. Did it with some plastics that had gone totally grey and they look like new now.
