Question Type of Paint?

I dont know if this question has been raised exactly, but i did do a search and didnt find anything in particular

anyway,
Ive got a Gen3 Camry, and for the Surround Panel around the Gear Stick, i want to paint that a Metallic Silver colour
to give it a sort of Brushed Aluminium look

do i need to use a Vinyl paint or will Ordinary car paint do?

thanks.

ive been to the autoparts shops, and they dont seem to have Metallic Silver paint for vinyl/plastic.....

all there is are spray paints for normal touch up purposes.....will they work? or will they crack when they dry?
