if your signals are not working, did you unplug your 4way button?..if so, thats why there not working, if not..check the fuses

i would do automotive paint in a can, if not, then i used to you krylon fusion paint paint before and it worked out pretty nice for me..had it for over a year and no peel and it was pretty tuff as well, remember to sand down all the parts a little...and wash with soap and water, and use primer

the reason why it peeled off was because it wasn't prepped right u have to scuff it and clean it with rubbing alcohol ....that will let it make a strong bond with the plastic

did u sand the plastic then primer it? thats probably why it came off. Autozone and Advance auto parts has interior paint. I used their engine enamel because its the same color as my valve cover, It works just fine as long as you prep before just spraying it.

1- sand it
2- 1st layer of primer
3- sand it again
4- 2nd layer of primer
5- 1st layer of paint
6- 2nd layer of paint

use light coats and 600 grit sand paper i did that and mine has chipped or cracked at all
