Nice work, you can get stickers for the Subaru sign you know but they only last a couple of years before they start peeling off. What I did see though that looked quite good was a stencil that you can buy off eBay, you stick it over the brakes so that you can paint over the letters perfectly.

Perm marker on the Subaru bit, will look spot on.

Or take a kitchen sponge like the small green ones, scrunch it up and use a flat surface of it to dab the paint you want onto the raised letters, build it up with a couple of coats.
