I would suppose that you can paint it yourself. Try doing a search on painting interior or engine bay pieces and see what is needed to do the job. I have a few Word files that I can share with you on this topic. PM me your e-mail address and I'd be glad to send them to you.

You can also check out mp3car.com's forums. They have lots of info there. I believe the method is to shoot it with a high-build primer first, then sand it smooth, then paint.
