I saw an episode of American Chopper showing how gun stocks are done. They roll a film of decal into a bath that released the film and you just dip your part in to apply it. So you could definatly do an Oz.(Not mine though ;D).

That's a really cool coating technique - I think it's called sublimation. Any patterns or pictures you can produce can be transferred this way.

Every 15 minutes some character is trying to talk my company (Trane) into doing that to our air conditioners!
