Any good methods and tips for freshening these trim/finish panels up?

Painting the letters?

Paint selection? Etc?
Photo tips and/or URL links welcomed and appreciated.

I used thin line 3m tape around the letters, I found this to be the best, not the fastest but it worked for my GTS Panel
 
What I did on some of my Barracuda emblems was to clean them REAL good to make sure every stitch of wax, oil, dirt, etc was removed. I then spray painted the whole emblem with Rustoleum Professional semi-gloss black. Then I used a paper towel dampened (not soaked) with paint thinner and wrapped tightly around a flat block of wood, I rubbed it lightly over the high points that need to be shiny to remove the black paint. It might take a few sheets to do large trunk panel trim.
