    Rustoleum is pretty good. Flames would look cool.

    before you can paint a raw plastic part you must first wash it with alcohol, then take a gray Scotchbrite pad and wet it with alcohol while you sand the part with it. next wipe it down with alcohol again and then spray it with a plastic parts adhesion promoter (available in a spray can at any parts store) and then after that any paint should work. when painting plastic or rubber parts, proper preperation is the only way to make paint stick.

    "Krylon Fusion For Plastic" spray paint works great.

    I think red or green would be best for the bike

    I'm an engineer an polymers are hard to stick things to. If you notice in the glue section in your store, the glues will say sticks to "some" plastics so good luck
