Default Painting O ____ handles, sunroof/dome light piece

Hey does anyone have any suggestions or pictures of this? (The o ____ handles painted, the sunroof/dome light plastic piece, and the inside of the back hatch)
I want to eventually have my car completely black and white. I'm wrapping everything in black suede and have already started with the white peices. I get them done at a body shop so I'm trying to have everything off and get done at once.
Anyone know how the piece in the truck (the inside of the hatch) comes off?

the hatch pieces just pop off sides first though, i painted mine flat black

the o ____ bars seem a little harder to paint, and the dome light i have not played with yet

For the back hatch plastic cover.......take off the trim around the window.Then in the plastic piece there are a couple of screws behind the panels,then pull down.

Wrapping it will be a fun one due to the hard 90 degree corners at the sides.........suede will not stretch very easy at all.You almost have to inside out the suede to get it to make the corner and then turn all the other sides under last.I am gonna be trying to do it next month,

That looks great! And I'll probably get a shop to do all the wrapping.
