Easy stuff mate. I recommend you to first take off the adhesive film first. It is a pita to do but with a heatgun it goes like a breeze.
Clean - degrease and than apply some primer. I would use plastic primer but up to you. Once is nice and dry, give it a sand with 200-400 grit. than if you use spray cans, make sure you get some good quality ones that will give you the right atomization. Sand it with 2000 grit and than go with clear. I would recommend a 2pac clear rather than normal acrylic. it would be great if you have the painting tools like compressor, gravity feed paint gun, etc. if not and if you're skilled, you can do a decent job with spray cans.
Now, the convertible has a all in one part rather than two parts so you might want to look into joining them together and fill the gap in between them.
take your time and have a lot of patience.
Good luck!

Plastidip the panels white first to see if you'd like it or not

That's a good idea. I will do that.

I vinyl wrapped mine with satin white vinyl wrap, it took about 30 mins and I just left the "carbon fiber" wrap on underneath. It looks pretty clean. Just don't get to crazy with the white. I've seen pictures where people have turned every silver and carbon piece white and it doesn't look as good. Just my opinion though.

Thanks for the opinion, I would strongly consider what to paint or not. I was just planning on the front panels. Everything else looks find to me the way it is.
