I actually just took bluetegb18a's advice. bought the Walmart Duplicolor brand spray paint in Gunmetal color, and the Clearcoat.

sanded it down with 300 grit paper. cleaned em. taped them off. sprayed even coats of primer (same brand), about 2 or 3 coats. then 3 or 4 coats of paint. let dry. sprayed about 5 coats of clear. let dry over night. and then put em on.
