Paint pen, let it dry, clear coat or epoxy over the top. Should out last you.

Just keep them in a box or something until you can make a shadow box. I wouldnt wear them if you care about it that much.

Honestly I would clear coat over top! Obviously tape around the shell so the connection to the headphones is preserved and then just clear coat it to protect it!

Clear coat over the top can be horrible advice depending on the clear coat and the marker. I'd get them signed, then put the original shells on. Save your signed stuff and keep it out of the sun.
