Default Want to paint my spark plug wire cover?

What kind of paint do I use for the spark plug wire cover. I want it to be a shinny, not flat. Any help is good.

just like painting anything else, make sure the surface is clean. Use some fine grit sand paper to scuff up the surface to give the paint some texture to stick to. I'd use some sandable primer. And always use alot of fine coats rather than 1 or 2 heavy ones.
