check out my pics. I used a automotive paint you can buy at any auto store, checker for example. The color is flat black but in the pics it looks a little blue lol.

using krylon fusion is easiest way

just clean off the trim and your set
no sanding priming or anything

Wal Mart spraypaint won't make it look perfect. Sanding isn't hard. Giving it a key beforehand with a mildly abrasive grit, and a wetsand with a very high grit will always make it look better.
