Thanks! And yeah, that's what most people do. It's what Honda does as well on all of their "Blue" and "Red" top VC's. If you want, I could give you a solid run-down of how to get a super polished, glossy finish look if you want. If you roll the "Honda" and etc., it may come out looking a little "orange-peely". Mine does if you look closely. If it's your first time, I'd recommend just getting a really nice coat of paint on the Valve Cover, and then sanding the letters down very carefully. It looks really professional.
If you have any questions about that sort of thing, feel free to ask me. My Dad did a lot of fine-scale modelling, and auto/plane painting, so I have some good tips passed down.
