I have used Plastidip in the past IMHO it's not very hard wearing.
Might just go for 911 on the engine lid  _________________ Porsche 997.2 Carrera 4S - Carrara White / Cocoa

I just got a replacement S from eBay that was sent from China after I broke mine cleaning the car.
You can't tell the difference against the remaining factory script.
The main difference is that it was £13 and not £50. _________________ Current '07 997 C4S

Just get them from a dealer, they’re available as a factory part.
Here’s a US source for $50 + shipping, but presumably your local OPC can get the same..

If your brother is sending you a US pork parcel get him to inc one of these from Eric at bumper plugs
https://www.bumperplugs.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=1_12_127&product_id=105
only cheap and colour coded to you body work, and a really nice touch on your drivers door, it just pushes into the key hole and hides the nasty chrome lock.
the pics not great but shows the one on my gen1 I also have one on the gen2 _________________ 911 Owners,Some Invest In The Future,
