Car paint

I didn't know where else to post. But here is the deal. I'm going to get my car painted soon, and I need to buy paint and primer. I want to get it like..the Skyline Blue, just like this: http://www.benlevy.com/auto/show/hin06/img_8721.jpg
If anyone can tell me where to buy car paint this color that would really help.
And how much would I need? Like, a gallon or what? I don't know a damn thing about painting cars Please tell me what else I need besides primer and paint. Thanks.

Re: Car paint

It sounds like you're planning on painting this car yourself... don't. Find a paint and body shop and bring them a sample of the color you want. Painting a car is definitely best left to professionals. And you will get what you pay for with a paint job so its best not to go el cheapo. Be prepared to shell out close to $1000 or more if you want your car to look anything like that Skyline
