Yeah I did the backs too but no sticker. The sticker I had was too big, my apologies for the crappy pic I'll post a better one when I get my car back from the body shop, got backed into at a parking lot

Dupont High Temp spray. Basically a base coat, plus 4 regular coats, and then clear coat.
The main thing is prep time, I spent alot more time prepping than I did actually putting on coats.

Holding up great, the decals are exactly where they were placed originally and the paint has not faded at all.
