Ok Ok Ok!
Geez you can be impatient! :P
VHT Vinyl Dye, you can get it from Autobarn! I think one of the stickies is about this!? Anyway, make sure you clean the hell out of the trim with "Wax & Grease Remover" first! After that spray VERY light coats and allow about 1-2mins to dry between coats, continue till colour is even! Simple!

Krylon Fusion!
You can only get in the States though! I used it on my centre console. It's chip and scratch proof. It also bends and streches, it's designed for plastics
Have since found it in a few places here that import it

You can see some interior shots of my car in "Show & Go"

Yeah, I emailed them too! It's a nightmare trying to get it from the U.S! I'm going to spray my dash with it and the door sills (they're scratched to shithouse!) Seriously though, this stuff is bulletproof! My centre console gets full of shit, especially where the window controls are (grease and dirt from your fingers) just wipes clean with a wet cloth, never needs a polish or anything!
Doors are done with the VHT Vinyl Dye as stated above, make sure you get a trim tool to remove the trims though! Otherwise you WILL break clips! I got mine from Total Tools, cost about $5! :beer
