Default Quad II Nameplates

I've been looking at an old thread from 2010 regarding removing/filling cracks in the Quad II perspex nameplates.

However, I have two that have chunks missing, either due to overtightening of the screws, or from corrosion pushing up from behind. See pic.

Has anyone had any joy at remaking these? They are quite small (at around 72mm x 38mm x 2mm), and I've thought about having some blank plates cut and engraved, but I'm concerned as to the accuracy and correct font etc.

I the past I have used photoshop to reconstruct damaged glass fascias, so toyed with the idea of copying the nameplate onto a new transparent film and sticking this to the back of a perspex blank....but I get a feeling this wouldn't look right.

Any ideas gratefully received!
