My Parts Car Failed it's UA!

Ha! Made you look! My SV is missing it's trunk/boot lettering. The PO welded the holes shut to smooth it out I reckon. The parts car has the lettering intact EXCEPT for the "A" and the "U". Successfully removed the letters and got a template off of the trunk lid but need the two missing letters. Driver quality stuff is fine. Would prefer studs/clips intact. New are available but might look like a diamond in a goat's hiney when used with the old ones. I'm not building a show car- just rescuing this neglected project that should be driven but it needs to be tidy. I do really think it should have it's "SUNBEAM" on the rear. It's fun when people ask "Sunbeam? Who built that?" Been answering that for many years with Nortons and the Vincent. If we wanted commonplace we'd all be driving an MGB, right?
Thanks-
