Dashboard lettering

Is there a way to repaint the silver letters on the dashboard that label "Ignition" and other swithches on a 68? I was thinking silver paint with a match head or very small brush but was wondering if anyone else has a better method.

A lot of folks like to use a silver "Paint Pen" by Testors, available at most hobby shops and/or Wal Mart. Still others have suggested having the entire bezel replated and then paint the black areas (beautiful but expensive). I know of one individual who applied chrome leaf with pretty good results. Not sure how durable that is though. Silver paint pen seems to be the method of choice.
