painting something while its installed is generally not a good idea. plastic vents, for example, will look like ASS if you dont remove them.

I resprayed the side moldings on my civic back in the day, now that i think about. I'm lucky everything was black, because when you look at it, its looks not so good. What I did was carefully taped off the edges, using two or three layers of tape, then tape up newspaper on the rest of that side to avoid overspray.

If you are wanting to do the same color (black with black, etc.) then it won't look AS bad as doing mixed colors (red car black trim, etc.)
