Go an auto paint and body supply store. Get some various grit scoctchbright pads......hit it with those. If necessary get some fine grit sandpaper.

Then buy some of SEM plastic / vinyl trim stuff. They make a "prep" or etcher, and then they make a wax / grease surface stripper and then they make the actual dye. A good shop can even sell it to you with one of those small, disposable sprayers and it will work and look MUCH better than any off the shelf spray paint.

will the scoctchbright pads take off the texture?

I think the scothbrite will scratch it up pretty bad. It is going to be difficult to find a solvent to remove it. You can try a little lacquer thinner in a very inconspicuous spot that is painted. Be careful though-- just dampen the rag and go slow in a blotting motion, don't be in a hurry. Then try to wipe over the spot with Armor all to see if the luster will come back. Let it sit for a while and see if it retained the shine. What happens is the thinner will dry the **** out of the plastic causing it to turn white. Like I said, try this in small spot first out of sight incase it doesn't work. I used some sprayable carpet dye on my car a got some overspray on the console. Tried this and worked, but my spot was about as big as a quarter.

i found a way to get most of it off. since i didn't primer it before i painted it, i got a thick piece of plastic with an edge to scrape it (plastic won't scratch) and used my air compressor. in combonation with some time i think i can get most of it off this way (that is if i stay in the shade)
