Studio 27 has released the decal set for Lunatic's TS020 98 kit. Studio 27 decals are thinner and white is more opaque than Tamiya's stock decal, so it's useful for the kit.

Unknown manufacturer has released a precut decal set for the Tamiya kit. It's fairly complete, and even the decals for the inside of rear cowl are included. I haven't compared it with my reference photos, so I don't know how directions of each pattern are accurate, but the decals are printed in at least four different colors. Quality of the carbon pattern isn't as good as those of Scale Motorsport, but this set can be used as a template.
