Question 60mm sticker for hub cap - desperately sought

The rims on my XJ8 are not orginal, so the original hub caps don't fit. Top visible diameter is 60mm, but the clamping diameter must be 57mm. Quite an unusual combination as I had to learn over the recent months.

My solution so far was to purchase nice hub caps for Jaguar rims and some blanks that fit my rims. I then cut the clamping section off the Jaguar caps and glued the logo onto the blanks. Not really perfect, they stick slightly out of the rim and cutting is also difficult to get it exact.

Being able to purchase 60mm green growler stickers that can be directly applied to a set of fitting cheap blanks would be perfect, I just can't seem to find any sticker like that.

Does anybod here know of a source to get good quality 60mm stickers with the classic green growler logo?

I already wrote to several of the shops that sell the complete caps on ebay, but they all are not able/willing to get the stickers separately. And their clamping part is always too small for my rims. Recently lost one cap (stolen?) and wouldn't like to go through the whole thing again for one replacement.
