You in sydney? I could sand and paint them all back to a close to stock colour.. Would cost you about $150 thats just for the time I spend on doing all that..

If not take it to a auto spray painter and get a quote on how much it would cost to do it.. May be less im not sure..

If not ill try find my post on it all.

The paint is shithouse its prob not even scatched the plastic, its just the shocking quality of paint they used.

Easy to fix, ive had GTR brushed aluminum paint work done before and now currently have black pearl, I also did the window switches on either door.

Basic way to do it..

This is what I do..

Buy a bottle or two or metho..

Pour into bucket (or a bin lid or somthing flat, long but holds fluid) Soak parts in it.. Obviously remove electonic parts from the fronts first.. And get duct tape and cover the clear plastic screen and cut out the red/blue plastic bits from the air con section.

Yeah so.. Soak parts for 5 mins .. and then use a brush or sand paper and remove left over.. Get your 1000 sand imperfections out .. Sand with 1500

Wash with soap.. Clean, let sun dry..

VERY IMPORTANT FOR SHINY COAT:

Spray light base coat of colour.. Let dry, slightly heavier, heavy ish coat, cover with clear in same fashion.

Make sure you let dry for half a day before re installing.

Im sure you wont have any issues..
