Mask off first for that too, luckily for plastic you won't need very harsh abrasives so the masking should provide good protection. Probably best to remove it then do a fresh run round with masking before painting to ensure proper cleanliness. The extra prep goes a long way, found that out the hard way with paint in the past!
