I went to Wal-Mart and got Grey#25flat and sanded it real good and then washed and dryed it. The car came out pretty good, it's still a little wet but here is a pic of it

I saw that too. Even the front window has a photoshopped tint. Learn to draw a staight line for the side skirts.

It took 5seconds to do, I wasn't going to put effort into it. But that's about how bad it proabably would look if I painted it myselfh:

i painted my civic. my car is vogue silver metallic. i used krylon 1401 bright silver. and rustoleam's plastic primer. the paint matches perfectly but the skirts look lighter because they are angled up(reflect the sky) and the lower part of the doors curve slightly and relfect the dark asphalt. here is a pick of my lids which i used the same krlon paint on.
