W30 tuning sticker under the hood

I bought this repro sticker from Year One. From the looks of the original sticker residue on the car this repro

Notice the original sticker residue around the perimeter of this sticker. Looks like this Year One repro sticker is not the correct size. Anyone know where to get the correct size?
sticker is too small. Any idea if someone makes the correct size W30 tuning sticker?

I found the same problem. And I have only found paper stickers. Dr. Decal was one of the first to offer these, many years ago, and he was adamant that the originals were smaller and made of paper. ???

I have the remains of my original vinyl stickers from the top of the core support and they are not small.

Thanks for asking this question.

Well I bought another sticker hoping it was the correct size, and it is smaller than the sticky residue that is left on my car just like the first sticker I bought. So I now have two stickers that are completely different in font. Can someone tell me which one is correct? My car is a 1970 W30.

Thanks!

That one does resemble the factory one more than the other

I can't imagine why they don't make them the same size as the originals? I did get a photo of an original that was helpful.

If you had one that was visually correct I'm assuming you could have it digitized and enlarged to the measured size of your original at any copy store.
