I've got the plant-ons done now and this is how it went.

First stage was a pattern which covered the area on the flat part and left wings where the part would curve over the edge.




Next I used a heat gun to soften the parts and fold them over the edges. I'm using .030" sheet stock which is much thinner than the shell so the heat wasn't going to bother the shell.


Next the wing was trimmed and the corners rounded followed by gluing and clamping.




After a bit of sanding to remove the slight lumpiness of the bend they looked like this.


The last bit was making the button plinths. I used a file to make the two inner seams so the part remains one piece.
