Need help side fender question

Currently have the eclipse grey with black plastic side fenders , I'd love to have them the same color of the car . How would I go about painting them or just replacing them all together ? Can anyone point me in the right direction

Body shop?

I've thought about this, odds of getting a perfect match seem slim considering the plastic vs. metal. I was thinking of trying a two tone, some color shade a bit different. I do understand as I hate the black cheap looking plastic things.

Yeah take them to a body shop. They'll sand them down and paint. It won't be cheap though.
