Rick Larsen at militarystencils.com did an outstanding job for my MB. Stencil was a 100% match with the size and font of the original numbers uncovered under layers of paint. Thanks.

FWIW, the stars are very easy to lay out with the automotive striping tape found at any auto parts store. Mask the surrounding areas with newspaper and drop cloths, and paint with a rattle can. They'll be at least as good as the originals. I did these in my driveway:
