    Sigh... My Girlfriend Ran Over a Curb. Is There a Good. Cheap Black Matching Paint?

    So my girlfriend doesn't have a car and her insurance would be like $350 since she just moved here, so I let her be an occasional driver on my insurance. Unfortunately, she is not a really cognisant driver. We were driving to the mall and she missed the turn so she was going to do a U-turn at this place where its permitted but instead of stopping and then making the turn, she hit the curb hard and then turned in a panic. She then turned into a parking lot and when I said I was mad and she should be more careful, she promptly walked to the bus stop and got on the bus, much to my chagrin. Grumble grumble. Lady conflict resolution is garbage. Either way the car appears to have taken the hit like a champ, nothing out of order other than she scraped the black paint clear off the lower passenger front.

    Tl;dr- Does anyone know a cheap spray paint or something that I could apply that matches the Black that Mitsubishi used on their 2014 mirage? I don't imagine any black would look bad, but if anyone has any suggestions, that'd be great.
