and third where can i buy oem paint and or paint that would match the car (even if its not mercedes-benz branded)

1) I doubt you would use more than comes in the spray cans (see below). You'll need both base coat and clear coat as well as some plastic prep, BTW.
2) VIN decoder tool here: http://www.mbclub.ru/mb/vin/?lng=eng
3) paint from here: http://www.paintscratch.com/

so how much would it cost in total (with clear coat and everything) to color match the bottom half to the top? does it matter if theres scuff marks and minor scratches on the bottom half?
