Hey guys - ok, I just got material in and I am planning to do a batch of them this weekend. I will ship out on Monday and you'll receive by Wednesday, before Thanksgiving... will be a nice easy project for you over the holiday weekend.
As I said, $100 for a set... that includes 2-day shipping within US.

Orders received by midnight on Friday night will be processed this weekend. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until I do another batch in December.

Here is a video that I recorded so you know what to expect:
Not liking that RPM has threadjacked, so bringing it back to brandfisch.
Bought a cricut for this (and other crafts that my wife can explore). Royally messed up the first handle. I peeled the vinyl before removing the backing, causing it to inadvertently stretch. When I went to put it on the handle, some parts were too long and wrinkled over the edging. Second try is better, but hard to get the corners clean (where the overhang and flaps meet). Since the cricut costs $200 on amzn, and $20 for the vinyl, I felt like having the tools would be a better option. Especially with my screwups, I can create 2-3 full sets to mess up on.
Few notes for those who are new to cricut/vinyl:
- Peel the negative area first to prevent stretching the piece.
- Cricut does not accept pdf as an image. Perhaps there is a better way, but I converted the PDF to PNG, then loaded to cricut.
- The cricut seems to have scaled the image down significantly (3"x3"). I ended up creating a black bar across the top so I could resize in the cricut app to exactly 12". Perhaps scaling it is losing some resolution around the notches.
- I used the middle vinyl setting on the cutting depth. It is a bit difficult to separate in the finer edges. A deeper depth setting would be better (iron on or whatever it is on the dial).
- I used a dash removal tool to press down the portion that tuckts into the door body. Credit card or fingernail would work as well.
- Cricut air seems to only be usable online through their website app and cricut account. Free to create an account, but more of an FYI for people who hate maintaining multiple login/passwords.
I only did one today, and will get the other three done tomorrow. Will send a few bucks via paypal for sharing your template.
