So far, the only standard I’ve found about modeling sticker “parts” is that
they should be 0.25 LU off the surface of the piece they will be “stickered”
to. What about width & length compared to the surface? I.E: sticker for
shields - should they extend to the edge of the shield or perhaps 1 LU in
from the edge?

Hi Mark,
I agree with Tim. I don’t think this should be a set standard, you should make
the stickers a size that looks good. In your case, I think I prefer the 1LDU
inset, but it’s really up to you.
The 0.25 LDU is just to try & make sure the bricks behind don’t peep through
when rendering. Though it depends on the renderer, 0.25 LDU seems to work well
with the ones commonly used for rendering LDraw models.
