Valves cover paint

Hi,
I want to paint my valve covers red to match the fan and the car color.
What kind of paint do you guys use for these covers?

Thank you.

I had my engine tins powder coated recently and it was the shop minimum price of $100. I’d suspect the 4 valve covers to be about the same.
