Rattle can paint does not generally like sticking to plastics.. If you take good care of the paint and avoid scratching it, it might be fine..

Paint will stick to plastics if you sand it, primer it, and paint it. Paint is going to chip no matter what it is on, its not just plastics.
I have seen pro's take a plastic fender or accessory or something (cars), primer them, and paint them all fancy. So it will be ok, its just that fenders take alot of abuse.
