You first need to clean the Mavic with wipes to make sure it is spotless:)

I started with the batteries as thats the way to test how hard it is going to be for the rest. I only have two batteries and the kit comes with three stickers:) I am going to buy a third battery:)

One of the hardest parts was realising it does not cover the Mavic completely

In Summary: At first i thought the decals looked of poor quality and pixilated. They cost £14.99/ $19.46. I had watched a few videos on other manufactured skins which were similar but different. This stood me in good stead as there were no instructions with this kit.
On the whole it was straight forward until the legs, which took a bit of figuring out which decal went where. The quality of the paper feels good so hopefully it will last.
I chose the Monster skin as i had bid on a Mavic Pro on Ebay and didnt get it, however i did like the design, hence my choice.
Having done this, i would not hesitate to do it again if i get bored with the way it looks.
I also went over each decal when fitted with a heat gun , just a short blast and then a rubb down to help it stick better.
I feel the end result is good, and i know now that these skins are not designed to cover eveything, so do expect to have gaps, which i feel does not affect the overall look:)
