How much paint to paint a bay?

[Toast]

I was thinking about painting our early bay myself and was wondering how much paint is required (two tone) divide in the normal place just below the glass, and would be taking the doors,boot, sliding door off but only painting outside including door shuts etc.....
How much top and how much bottom colour to get a nice amount of paint on please?

I've just done a Rustoleum respray and bought 5 ltr of cream & 1 ltr black for the roof, 8 ltr of white spirit, approx.£80 total and still got some of each left over , about half the white spirit was used for cleaning the spray gun.

Got pics then? Surely you documented the proof?
