Restoring the face of a trip computer

This could then be painted the color needed. But open to any solutions as in my restoration this is one area that needs work.

Ship

FYI
That would work in part, but there is some background lighting in the panel.
You will notice it when you are riding at night. With brass, you will be losing that feature.
On previous treads on the topic, the solution was to use something similar to a 3M transparent film. That would be a good solution. Now if we can only find the template for it, that would be great!
