Question How would you paint a vintage television?

Hey forumites, some of you may be morally opposed to what I'm suggesting, but I want to paint my vintage Mitsubishi TV green. I have been trying to collect several green vintage TV's for an art project and as some of you may know, green TV's from the 50s-80s are few and far between.

Here's a photo of the TV I want to paint:

I will be spray painting which should make things easier. I want to paint over the silver front as well as the yellow sides, and I will be leaving the black trim there. I don't think it's possible to take the front part off and paint that separately...right? There's only 2 screws on the entire TV and those are on the back. I've never actually painted anything before....ever....so if you have any pointers for how to go about doing this, I would appreciate it!
