Citrus Strip is safe on most plastics.

I soaked a lot of parts in evaporust. It has always soften up the paint or removed it. Never tried it on a fan shroud. But I bet it would work. Even if it softens it and then used a high pressure air blow gun to remove what's left.

Use Super Clean. The purple gallon container. Submerge the part for best results. Plastic model builder hobbyist use it. Check out YouTube videos. Won't hurt plastic. Don't get it on your skin. Great for stripping vacumn plating (chrome) on arm rest bases, AC balls etc. Read the directions on what not to use it on.

This is the best and safest. Castrol Super Clean.

I did mine and it came out perfect.
ZIP STRIP........It lifts paint right off and 0000 fine steel wool. Wash it good. DONE.
Of course, don’t try it while it’s attached. 😎

I tried paint stripper, which turned out just fine. Used a rag and plastic scraper then washed off with soap an water. Didn't harm the plastic at all...

Paint removal off plastic
 
You may want to try regular lighter fluid. Do not leave on for extended period of time, just wipe on & wipe off. Use plastic cleaner soap like Super Clean or Simple Green diluted afterward for cleanup. Don.
