Post cooler back end?

my dad and i were outside admiring the 944 on this fine day when he had an idea. we were just thinking of things to make the car a little unique when he suggested that we paint the "porsche" letters that are recessed in the rear rubber spoiler. Anyone here think it would look cool if i used a fine brush to paint the letters silver to complement the "944" badge? I think it'll make the logo more prominent. anyone else do this? what kind of paint would be best? I know it's a pretty simple thing, but i thought it was cool.

im thinking the paint might sink into the bumper and u cant see it.. im trying to think of something you can put in before paint to stick to THAT rather than the paint.. i tried this once a long time ago and its a BITCH to get the paint out with thinner. it stays all along the edges.

Mine had been painted, ( yellow ) when I got it, but the spoiler flexes and the paint don't so it was lookin' real crappy. I had a hard time getting it off.
