You want to plastic primer the arches before you put any high build primer on! The orange peel affect isn't very deep, so you can plastic primer, high build primer, smooth then paint...

no dont use filler on the plastic arches.
paint them before you bond them.
what colour are they going to be, and are you doing it yourself
