This may make no difference at this late date but, for what it's worth . . .
I used to paint airplanes for the navy. The way I was taught to prime any surface was to spray the primer thinly so that the metal surface could be seen under the primer. I would think that a very thin coat, applied so that the plastic could be seen when priming was done, should be sufficient to hold any topcoat. Primers, if they are true primers, slightly etch the surface in order to hold and they also are specifically designed to hold topcoats. If applied correctly primers won't hide any detail.
