All the parts aren't interchangeable, so I don't want to buy some that are already black and then have the other's painted and have them not match...

I don't want my seats done...I just want the trim on the dash and door vents.

I just tried painting the center dash trim. I have a spare that's not painted. Everything else I want painted hasn't been touched yet. Turn around time can be anything...these pieces are not essential to have when driving the car, so whatever a standard time would be is fine. As for prep work...they might have some small light scuffs on them from normal use, but no deep scratches or anything.
My list of things I want painted are:
Left and Right door vent surround (I know the Holden CV8Z picture has a satin black on these, but I want them gloss like the rest)
Gauge cluster surround
Center dash trim (actually two pieces)
Thanks for the responses.
