I’d repaint, using rigid stencils so it looks original together with any webbing/speckles from the original paint job.

Quoted from PhilGreg:

Depending on how much time you want to invest, I know it's not going to have the exact overspray look, but I do think getting the Pinball Pimp stencils is worth the money.

I would never use a vinyl stencil on this era of machine myself. Instead, I get laser-cut MDF stencils made, based on vectorized art I create from a scan.

Hopefully once corona is over I can get them done for free again at my local library.

Mine has two high-end laser cutters in its "Makerspace" that you can sign up to use for free. Good deal

They have an Epilog Helix and an Epilog Mini.

Due to covid I had to use a laser cutting service which was pricey but still doable. Can't be beat for cutting curves perfectly.
