Decal positioning

When I do the new paint on my '88 Formula, I'd like to get all the markings in the exact, correct positions. I don't want a true expert to look at it later and say the door letters are too high, or the sail panel birds are too low, or the bumper lettering is too far right or left.

Does anyone know a source of the decal position specs and measurements for '88 Formula?

why dont you just measure where each decal is now and write it down for each one..you could also put a ruler infront of them and take pictures so you dont forget...

Normally a good idea, TA5point0, but the pPrevious owner had it repainted, and didn't put ANY of the original markings back on the car. Probably marks my age, but I don't understand guys who don't want any identifiers on their machines.
