Where would I find and What Is the correct paint method for black out on the 1969 Judge front Grills and Hidden Headlight covers?

Any previous thread links greatly appreciated. Thxs.

Like shown in this previous posted photo - behind the GTO script - is what I mean

Disassemble, prep for paint, mask, paint, mask, paint, reassemble, install.
I wanted more of a contrast than the stock look so I used gloss black and aluminum colored paint. I know this is not factory correct but I wanted to check it out.
I started w/ painting both sides black then taped off appropriately and painted the rest silver. Boom bada Bing. Think they turned out pretty good. I was checking out my friends 65 concourse show car and it looks like a 3rd grader did his, the detail was not so hot, pointed it out, he saw what I meant.
Make sure to get super straight lines in your tape job, you'll be surprised at the difference.
