How about getting the stencil kit and taking it to a local vinyl sign maker? He can cut to the pattern and fit them. you would still have the stencils should you decide to set out and paint them on later.

Hi Newp,
There is a sign shop in Aplsey near Hemel that will cut vinyl to order.
Cannot remember the name but you can't miss it.
