email to me??? hmmm this is the only one I got...

*thinking...*
I don't know of a source for the decal transfer paper for models but
what I have done before on a white vehicle was to cut it out of thin
paper really close to the edges of the logo.

May have an idea here that will work...
Avery has many products that are clear, they are peel and stick
printable on most printers. There are return address labels, mailing
address labels, and I believe I have seen a full 8-1/2 x 11 sheet...
you could print your decals onto this clear paper and then cut them
out and apply where needed. The only prob I see with doing this is
the paper might be a little thick.
Hope this helps you out :)
