Fader

OK, my FRPP valve covers and manifold cover arrived yesterday. My plan is to paint/clear-coat the manifold cover to match my exterior (Sonic Blue). It was also suggested that I paint the radiator cover to match.

So, my question is, how would one go about painting a textured surface like the radiator cover, without it looking cheap or coming out looking terrible? If it get's messed up, replacing it isn't any trouble. I just don't want it to look bad.

This is the look I'm going for, overall.
