Yeah, i used this technique to spray th plastic bumpers of a ford laser once. I used spray packs aswel, they can do a good job. The biggest trick when painting plastic, is to use a plastic primer, and do about 8 really thin coats rather than 2-3 thick coats, as the paint tends to disperse on the surface when sprayed on too thick. Finish off with a super light sand with wet and dry sandpaper, and about 4 thin clear coats.

Save your money. Once you're off your restrictions, I can guarantee you'll want a bigger bike. Especially if you decide to ride with the Hardcore guys. Some real talented riders there.
