91 Formula decal placement???

I purchased a set of decals to make the car look stock again. My 91 Formula does not have any decals on it, I bought it that way. Can some one tell me the correct location dimensions for the door decals, sail panel, rear bumper, and the bird on the front bumper? If some with a 91 or 92 can give me measurements off their car that would be very helpful.
I do not have the body side molding on the car either so I can't measure off that. They did leave the decals on the hood so I'm good those.

Thanks in advance...

Are these GM decals or reproductions?

Re: 91 Formula decal placement???

The factory door decals use the paper as a locator is why I asked.

Here are some measurements from my original paint 92 formula (factory stuff does vary soooo)

Front bumper, bird wing tips to upper front bumper edge is 2 1/2 inches

Door, 4 1/4 from leading edge of door to middle of decal and 6 3/4 up to decal bottom from bottom of the door

B-pillar bird, 3 1/4 over from door glass to decal middle and 1 1/2 up to bottom of the bird from the middle of the outward curving body line

Rear bumper, the middle of the A is in line with the right hatch/quarter and its 2 1/2 inches up to decal bottom from the body line below it.

The b-pillar birds, door decals and rear decal are not all placed the same from the factory. So use these measurements as a general guideline.
