Default How much paint do I need?

Hey guys, I'm about to order some taffetta from paintscratch.

I'm painting my sideskirts, tag area, grill, moldings, door handles, and mirrors.

Do you think I'll need 2-12.5oz cans? Or can I get away with just one?

I'm thinking about doing a write-up and posting it in the 92-00 forum. I hope it belongs there, So it can go in the index.
