I'm scared to do it on my own

I'm thinking of painting the top plastic part as well so I can remove the holes from the license plate. Any tips on what kind of material should I use to fill the holes with?

This is my experience. Keep in mind, this is my first time ever dealing with paint.

Items I used.

Trash Bags, Satin Black Spray Paint, Clear Coat, masking tape, a Brush, and 1500 grit sand paper.

I use two coats of black and two coats of clear. the hardest thing of this process was taping the damn thing.

Picture 1: The Stuff!
Picture 2: The paint/clear coat
Picture 3: First Coat of spray paint
Picture 4&5: 1st and 2nd Coat of clear
Picture 6: My finish project
Picture 7: About to start brushing it.
Picture 8: Brushing fail.
Picture 9: FML, got paint on the side.
