if it where me i would just think to chuck some masking tape and newspaper on the outline of where you want it and then paint it from theres using primers, base coats and clears, but thats just coming from someone who's had very little experience on painting.
so theres very likely a better way to do it.

I've had great success with Supercheap Auto's version of Plastidip - "Dupli Colour Custom Wrap" on my Jimny's grill. Its been on for about 3 months and survived almost weekly pressure washes without bubbling up, still looks like the day I did it. I'm strongly considering getting a larger quantity to do the same thing you're planning. Its matte and rubberized, and if it does scratch, apparently you simply spray over it and it blends right in.

A bit pricey but it looks ace.
