Default Carbon Fiber Battery Door

I just redid my battery door. I used super user and android decal, then covered them with 3m di-noc carbon fiber vinyl.

Before laying down the di-noc did you sand down the texturing on the battery door? Where did you pick up the decals? Will post pics next weekend of the door in silver, after I replace my girlfriend's hair dryer. (For some reason she won't let me use hers on projects anymore)

I just sanded the Sprint and Samsung logo. I bought the decals on eBay. I post the seller I bought them from later.
I want to try the Alsa stretchable chrome next.

I did not seal the edges. I did have clean edges with alcohol, because the edges would get fuzz.

Here is the Ebay seller I bought the decals from. I bought the small 2 pack decals.

Here are some how to. Only difference is I first applied the small decals first, then applied the Di-noc.
