Yeah the lowers are black plastic that is then painted a sort of satin black. They do separate from the coloured portion so could be taken to a body shop to be smoothed and painted, although its quite a difficult finish to replicate well. Tradition still have new ones for about £400, but getting them here is pretty much impossible.
Marcel's suggestion of a good used one would be the simplest solution, but good used ones are almost as hard to come by as new ones.
