Default 1971 LeMans Radio Surround Graphics

Years ago I believe someone made a restoration plate for us people that hacked the dash for an aftermarket radio. I have seen the ones for the GTO but none for the LeMans. I have a new radio to install and a faceplate to install soon and have tried to get a sheet of adhesive from a local graphics designer to install over the faceplate to match the dash, no luck so far. He just can't seem to get the lines small enough.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks, Mark

Have never seen a thin spaced line graphic or a repair panel for the lower right hand portion of the '70-72 dash bezel. The swirled GTO appiques dont repair the radio bezel area, just surrond it. Even the better GTO applique isn't dead on. The only '70-72 plastic piece that have ran across, was a 3D printed radio block off plate. Could use another of those for a '72 project.

The entire lower area can be carefully replaced. Ends up being quite a bit of tedious work to splice the entire 16 1/4" long lower plastic area w/o a hint of the repair. Have been down that road before, w another coming up this winter on a non AC 72 bezel.
