Kinda..  I found out the radius measurements for the top and bottom curves, marked them out on two small pieces of cardboard and then cut them out to use as templates.  As I was nearing the "eyeballed" radius on the control panel, I would use the cardboard templates to continually check the radius.
Finally, I used high gloss paint on the surface and my "above bench mounted" 3" fluro to check the continuity across the length of the panel for "linearity"..

I came out quite nicely indeed.. which it kinda needed to - otherwise the overlay would have puckered up and not sat nice and flat..
