Try a NAPA store or something like that? Or go talk to a body shop manager about where they get there paint from?

Black paint is the most difficult (and expensive, for that matter) to do. GOOD prep work beforehand is essential, or else every little blemish and imperfection will show afterwards.

Be careful.
