Default Are the decals on the tail clear coated?

I'm doing the tail swap on my 06 and I need have my new tail painted. Does anyone know if the factory puts clear coat over the decals or is that just for the ones on the tank?

Thanks,
Mark

I am just completing an air brush project and I found on mine that all stock decals were clear coated..

The decals are not clearcoated on my wife's '01 F4i, I peeled the decals off the tail section in one piece, just parked it in the sun for a while first.

Mine were not clearcoated. Came off easily with a little heat.

Thanks guys, I won't bother having them clear coated by the painter.

Stock only the tank decals are cleared over, none others. If any other decals are cleared over, it's aftermarket.
