if the letters are indented to the cover I'd paint the cover with a gloss laquer red, then use an acrylic black to paint the letters. once the acrylic has dried, come back with some fine grit sanding paper, and CAREFULLY remove any exess paint that has flowed onto the area that you don't wish to be black. then hit it all with a good clear coat


if the letters are raised, I'd paint the cover red, then mask off the area you don't want to get any black paint on, then "drybrush" the black onto the letters. if you are unfamiliar with drybrusing, it's done by getting some paint on a paper towel, or napkin, then rubbing your brush on the towel/napkin to transferr paint to the brush without having it soak into the bristles, then lightly hitting the raised surface of the part you are detailing and transfering the paint from the brush to the part. it's alot more difficult to explain with words, than it is just to show you.
