sand it with some 400 sand paper then primer it and then when u get a good layer of primer on it sand it with some 600 sand paper tell its nice and smooth. u can wet sand it after this with a 1000 if you want to use metallic paints then paint color you want it wait about 10 - 15 min. when it get nice and tacky then spray a couple of layers of clear over it dont over do it you will get drips, after it dries if it not as shiny as you want it to be you can put some cutting compound on it and buff it really good then wax it

You really don't have to search too far, there is a write up in the Stickies section of this forum under Paint and FAQ called "Painting Plastic (Intakes, etc.)
