I'd make one out of clear 2part epoxy, myself...

Make a silicone mold (type 1 bathroom caulk is cheap and effective), pour the mixed epoxy in, wait a few hours, demold, file the flashing off, reassemble.

In this case, I'd add some laser toner powder.

Not sure how I would add the missing white silkscreen text/images though.

Another option might be to use white 3d printed ABS (undersized!), with raised text. Backfill with the epoxy + toner mix, then 'solvent wash' with xylene on stiff shop paper towel until it is 'washed' flush with the black epoxy. Finish with clear automotive topcoat.
