First decide if you want to just use paint and have it chip off after 2-3k miles, or get some black undercoat and put it in there. I went the undercoat route on my 97 camaro and it lasted all the way until I sold it, about a year. Just got it at napa, some black undercoat and it was spray on, took 2 cans to do it all with pretty decent coat. I didnt get any overspray on my car with the undercoat spray. If you can find paint on undercoat in a bucket id go that route.

I used spray on truck bed liner, and it came out beautiful. I would recommend it over undercoating. It sticks better to the wheel wells
