If you live in an area with lots of high-tech, there is probably a local shop
that specializes in plastic. In my area, it's TAP Plastics.

I've only used them once, but they were great.
The plastic for a 5370 has a mask on the back side. On the right, it's a
stencil to turn diffuse LEDs to text. You could probably make the equivalent
by printing on the plastic sheets used with old overhead slide projectors.
There is a diagram on page 3-10 of the operating/programming manual. I'll
take a picture if that will help.
