Default 78 SA decals

Does anyone have the decal measurements or tips for painting the light silver pinstriping on instead of using the decal kit?

I know there are a few more 78 SA's on here. I'm sure somebody painted instead of using the decal kit.

Anybody?

You can find the decal placement in an assembly manual, not a service manual.

I have the decal placement from the AIM, but I need to know the dimensions of the decals so I know how much to mask.

Mine was missing the hood decals and the ones around the side vents.

After unintentionally removing a few of them with a pressure washer many years back (), I had all of the pinstriping painted on when I changed to the L88 hood, but didn't replace the light silver stripes around the vents (just looked too busy to me) so I don't have any dimensions for those. Sorry.

However, I still have the old hood with most of the decal intact. Exactly what measurements do you need?
