For the decals specifically you may want to check tutorial [this video] posted by CG Thoughts. For posts in general you really should focus on a single question.

Thanks @NascentSpace, the comments on that video led me to this one which is much easier and works perfectly for me: [this video]

I'm working on renders for a corvette I modeled via a course from cgmasters. On one of the front fenders, I want to add Grand Sport stripes like shown here: [LINK] The car paint is blue, and I want to do white stripes. My rough guess is that I would create the stripes as an image, then UV unwrap the fender and apply the image to the wrap. I feel like I may be missing something though. Any help is appreciated. Note: I tried this method of adding a texture as a decal and shrinkwrapping it. But because this is something that needs to stop precisely in some places, I cannot get it to work. [this video]
