Question Engine Cover Too Hot For Vinyl Decals?

Does anyone know if the plastic engine cover gets too hot for vinyl decals?

I've had vinyl decals on mine for a while now with no problems.

No problems with large pieces...but very small pieces might get loose when dusting the cover.

On mine the flames tips are getting loose and I have to add some glue. But for the rest it's ok as long as you do a deep cleaning with methyl hydrate.

Here's a look at mine
