In placing the new decals, the shiny areas provided great guides for placing the new decals exactly where the old ones had been. I do still need to address the oxidized areas though. I only replaced my front and rear decals as the sides still look pretty good.

That's kinda my plan. Remove what's left of the decals (not much) and adhesive, then clean/deoxidize, then use the shiny part as a guide to put on the new decals since they should be the same ones as what came off of it. I'm sure that even after deoxidizing the surrounding area that there will be enough of a shadow to place the new decals.
