Thanks in advance.

How bad did it mess up? It sounds like maybe you tried to unmask it before the paint was dry? The problem with just making the numbers out of the vinyl sticker itself is there's only so many colors it comes in, and it would be hard to match toe other numbers even remotely close. Also you would be looking at the adhesive side of the vinyl unless you were to put them on the black inner tin, but then I'm not sure if they would light up quite right. I'll check when I get home and see if I have anymore stencils.
