Looking good Dicca, I would go for Red lettering, go for the Brembo look.

You could try Taking a grinder to the surface of the lettering first. It will bring out the natural metal colour and will make them nice and flat. If that doesn't look good then you can paint them red. It will be easier to paint once the surface is ground off too.
