Hand paint.

Second that. Masking those emblems is a lot of work to start with but with spraycan you can't control the layer of paint very good which might result in fuzzy edges. Hand paint might take a few layers but is much easier to control.

very old kit right? I had one and it was ultra tough (need to use adhesion one!) ... am looking for any new 5-star story model kit...

I just got one of the Volks IMS plastic-kits.

At least it was a bit cheaper than their resin but FSS-plastic is def. pricey in comparison to gunpla...and without snapfit and such.

Where and how much did you get it for?

I got it from Mandrake (http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/) which is kind of a second-hand-shop but I would easily call the kit mint-in-box.
Kit was 7000JYen + 4600JYen for EMS-postage + tax rclxub.gif . I could have gotten it at Volks Webstore as well (https://www.volks.co.jp/page_ex.jsp?CONTROLID=SC0010&BUSINESSID=InitDisp&version=en) for I guess 1600JYen more but since I wasn't in hurry I just kept watching Mandrake for a few months.
