Painting taillights!

Painting taillights!
Ok, so due to recent events, I have to put my S4 tails on my S5. I really don't like this look but I think it looks much better when they're painted white to match the car.
So my question is, is there anything I need to know about painting them, like do they need to be primered? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you can find the Niteshades paint, clean the lenses with Prep-sol, cut out a pattern for what you don't want sprayed and apply 3 very light coats. In the daytime the tails will look like the S5's, or whatever pattern you don't paint, when the brakes or running lights are on, you will get near full illuminarion through the painted part. If you want to have fun, make the cutouts look like rotors.
