would it be possible to make a mirror(doesn't have to be perfect, just something to reflect light better than regular paint) by spray painting one side of a sheet of plexiglass with (glossy or flat?) black paint?

Just go anywhere that sells window tint. Walmart may even carry it. If you haven't ever installed tint before, you may want to find out how much a tint shop would charge you to do it.
