Filling Panel Lines

I'm looking for an easy / fast / inexpensive way to fill in the panel lines on my white Skyline body. It needs some detail, and I think the panel lines are where to start. I would like to make them more gray in color than black so the colors don't contrast too much.
I know about Gundam markers, but I don't think I can find one locally, so I'm looking for alternatives.

Anybody?

Panel Lines

I use a Micron 005 pigment ink marker. Look for it in your local craft store (Michael's or Hobby Lobby) in the scrapbooking aisle.
Costs about $3 & easy to do!

I used black ink, not sure if it comes in grey, but it might come in brown.

Decals

SmokenRubber,

Do a search for SupraCruza. He makes and sells NICE decals!

You can also use india ink, they come in all colors, but you'll need to load it into a technical pen. Sharpie markers with a fine tip also work very well, but you can only get them in colors other than grey.

I tried a fine tip Sharpie, and it wasn't working very well.
