Signed Out

An hour after we installed a backlit sign face the customer calls and says the phone number is wrong!
It was the number that was on the proof which he signed off on. He doesn't dispute this and owned up to the mistake.
Is there a good way to fix this without re-doing the whole panel? Customer wants the cheapest fix possible...
It is white polycarbonate with reverse printed clear on the backside and translucent print on the front side. The area where the phone number is has a solid dark green background with a white phone number.
If i cut a rectangle around the phone number and peel the translucent print, and place a piece of translucent vinyl in the blank spot with the same background color, then place a contour cut phone number(white translucent) on top of that, do you think that would work? Would the one layer of solid dark green translucent on the front, blockout the phone number of the clear print on the backside from showing through? I could also add in a thin white border on the rectangular piece to hide the cutout.
I discussed possible options with the customer on how to fix this and he was open to putting an opaque patch over the wrong phone number, knowing that it won't light up and would look awkward, but I told him that I would explore other options in hope of finding an inexpensive fix that doesn't look like a fix.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
