I can confirm that the dash and other plastics are painted.

What we did at the bodyshop was to lightly key the surface with a scotch pad. Then a light spray of plastic primer was added. Then it was painted in the colour i wanted. The paint isn't just normal 2k paint. Its a matt enamel, so its pretty tough, hence there being no scratches. To sctratch it you'd need some force and a sharp object.
