I used some of the left over red paint that was used on the truck for some places w/ a fine artists brush, and flat black spray bomb - a bit of slip can be easily wiped off the smooth chrome, or later taken off w/ a razor blade - where the paint needs to be in the recesses, apply it to the whole area and wipe off the high spots where it's not wanted - don't expect great durability on the exterior items if you really drive the truck, especially in any weather and highway speeds, unless you wanna try to scuff sand the chrome
after 2 winters daily driving mine was fading a bit and the hood emblem looks a bit 'sandblasted'
very original looking now!
don't remember just what the 59 pattern is, but the hood emblem on the 58 can be masked and sprayed pretty easy w/ the red/black like original, and I think the 59 should be much the same
