Do you want to paint the whole bezel, or just the very edge like I did?
If it's just the edge, I used a Krylon Short Cuts paint pen. Otherwise a rattle can will work just fine.

If you do paint the whole bezel, Make sure that scratch off as MUCH silver as you can with 1000 then 2000 grit sand paper. I made the mistake of not sratching it off and then painting them. Once I got them back together and on the car, I noticed two little spot where the black paint scraped off and the silver showed through.
^^This was when I had painted bezels. Now I am just running cleared corners and HIDs.

ACE should have them, or any decent hardware store. I only needed one pen, but bought two to be on the safe side.
