Question Painting interior door panels?

I'm putting power windows in my 86, burgundy interior. My problem is, I can only get blue door panels to do the swap. I'm wondering if there is a good paint that I can use (or more than one?) to simply paint the vinyl and fabric door panel to match the rest of my interior. Thanks in advance!

Hey, My friend just painted the interior of his Honda Civic..he painted it white and blue inside. Anyways, he bought the expensive 4.00 interior paint from Autozone.. _DONT_ get it..it chipped off while we were holding it tryin to put it in..Everyone else i've talked to about it did this..Go to the Dollar Store, get a can, and get a can of clear coat, they say it works perfect.
Btw, dont strip the interior crews, use the right screwdriver or you will regret it

Yes, you can paint/dye the plastics, but for the fabric, go to a fabric store and get something you like and replace the stock stuff. I used marine vinyl when I blacked out the Sport.
