Painting an OEM grille

Hey guys

I know a lot of you have painted your OEM grilles, and I'm looking for good pointers. I'm purchasing a second grille for my car from an Acura dealer off of eBay, and I wanted to paint it black. Anything I need to know before I embark on this process? I'm not personally painting it - I'm giving it to my father, who is quite handy (we installed/painted/etc. all kinds of things on my 05 Honda Accord).

Most importantly, where did you purchase the paint to match your factory color? My car is the black pearl, and of course I want it to match perfectly.

All help is greatly appreciated - this will be my first major "mod" to the car - and I'm hoping it's a success!

Thanks everyone!
