The finish you have on the handbrake lever (and steering wheel) is very similar to what I achieved with Woollies product on my handbrake, which I believe can be spray painted, though I brushed it on.
I also painted the plastic surround to match - pictures on an old thread somewhere.....
(Though mine is beige not grey)
And, as noted in the "memory button repair" thread I also used Woollies on that panel. 
I did debate whether to recolour my steering wheel and gear shift to match, but left them alone in the end. It seemed a better match to the plastics etc. around them.
Edit: Thread here. You even asked about it way back then in 2014! http://forum.a8parts.co.uk/showpost....09&postcount=7
