Following up on Wayne's post above, a very good automotive 1-stage clear coat is SprayMax 1K (about $15/can, though, iirc).
The better, 2-stage clear is SprayMax 2K, at about double the price though, and with the added problem that you cannot spray and store as you can with the 1 K. The 2K catalyst bonds/hardens with the lacquer inside the can within roughly 48 hours once released, and then everything inside becomes rock hard.
If buying other black paint + clear, try to make sure they are chemically compatible (same brand, etc.), as some clears do not react well at all with some base paints. Follow all instructions re: temp, off-gassing/curing time between coats, etc., and the bars will look pro.
