Gibson Les Paul Standard Headstock Overlay

Doing my first Les Paul build. It's a really nice set neck kit off of eBay. I wanted to know other than eBay if there are any resources for oem headstock overlays?

And before anyone gripes, no I'm not looking to sell this, I'm just a stickler for details and want it to look just like the real thing.

Thanks

I have no idea where overlays can be got...If you a doing a build I would go with the holly veneer(vintage spec) rather than what is used on regular production Gibbies...
