Jim et. al., Go Westy has reproduced the decals perfectly:

I abrasive blasted my panels and used Rustoleum Espresso rattle can enamel. Mine are brown, and it's a bit darker but looks great.

You can take the panel off, take it to certain paint stores (call around) and they will scan the item and sell you a custom can of the exact color with clear coat if you want it.

Then, before you reinstall it, check with me. I have a project going to produce spray paint stencil masks of the westy logo and lettering on the big panel. I already have the small led panels for the various 82, 83 and the later grey versions to peel and stick over the small panel after it is repainted.

Don't be in a rush, the guy doing the stencils is powder coating a bunch of early westy interior metal stuff for me and he is a perfectionist and taking his time. I have agreed not to hurry things.
