if your asking the questions then dont try it, if you cock it up its going to cost more to put right

not true with the right advice and common sence you would stand a half chance of getting it ok, if its not quite the right finish with 1500 and soapy water and a mop makes it ok anyway.

all depends on whats there preped in mate,

well imo, id start off sanding them back with 320, smooth it out then 500, then 800 the rest of the panle
deep scuffs on plastic can be bit hard if you havnt done them before, its hard to say with out pics it mite sand out it mite need filler hi build priming ect ,
