where to put decals/insignia on fansproject casualty figures

So i picked up fansproject crossfire T bone at london comicon this weekend.

at first 50pounds for a figure seemed steep considering i paid a prowl masterpiece along the same price.
I went along and bought it all the same. At first I didn't like the transformation process and how the wheels stay loose in robot mode.

But it grew on me. it has posability, reistance, balance and its just the right size.

I'm defenitely gonna try and get me some more of these guys, this said until then I'd want to add a faction insignia on t-bone.. BUT.. I'm new to this and besides having to buy the decals (in uk) I was looking for places to stick it but can't really find anything for robot mode. I checked comic appearances (megatron origina and later) but most insignia placement is for vehicle mode (roof/doors) for wildrider/tbone. The art on the original toy/comic shows his inisgnia somewhere on his abdomen.
There is no space on the abdomen for a decal/sticker. Maybe on the top middle chest part there is a section but it doesn't look perfect.

Has anyone tackled this already? any pics in which case?

thx in advance

having said that the fansproject casualty figures don't realy have much space for labels. this post was about where to put them on the figures, ... so.. ... anyone... ?

BUT i dont like the specific labels for the drag strip (the gray background of the decepticon insignia is not the same gray as the toys plastic - the other labels i don't really care for)

I prefer the white outline symbols (http://reprolabels.com/Symbols/whiteoutline.php) or even just the clear symbols (http://reprolabels.com/Symbols/fsdecclr.php) ..


BUT there is no way of understanding scale of these stickers... can anyone tell me if the smaller 'badges' on the white outline lables or the clear decepicon labels are small enough to fit on Drag strips chest?
