Tailgate paint scheme

So I am restoring a 72 chevy C20 deluxe truck on medium green and white. I have everything sand blasted and painted or almost painted. I loved the patina on the tailgate recessed letters, but was not able to keep it from getting blasted. So should I make the tailgate look like new, try to recreate the faded lettering, or something else. I am looking for ideas. I will probably paint it in 2 weeks or so.
