This is something you will prob have to organise yourself ?
Do you know any good body shops ? Some one local ?
It will take plenty of flexible primer and a few coats of top coat, I'm not all that certain the finish will be durable though ? Only dead fish go with the Flow !

plastic used on those is crap to paint
you'd have to use very good plastic promoter and number of primer coats to get stable surface for colour and clear coat but it would shutter on the first bigger flex not worth the hassle or dosh spent on it

I have colour matched mud flaps on my D3 no problem. A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill. It does reduce the likelyhood of you dying when really, really ill. Stay Alive - KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE.

It'll be colour coded wipers next 
It's just wrong anywhere, but more so on a Land Rover
In fact this question should never have been raised on a LR forum
