I'm trying to get checkboxes/radio buttons styled exactly like the image below

I've tried this code in my css bu that's not exactly how it should be in the image. 

/* Base for label styling */
[type="checkbox"]:not(:checked),
[type="checkbox"]:checked {
  ;
  left: -9999px;
}
[type="checkbox"]:not(:checked) + label,
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label {
  ;
  padding-left: 1.95em;
  cursor: pointer;
}
 
/* checkbox aspect */
[type="checkbox"]:not(:checked) + label:before,
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label:before {
  content: '';
  ;
  left: 0; top: 0;
  width: 1.25em; height: 1.25em;
  border: 2px solid #ccc;
  background: #fff;
  border : 1px solid #512888;
  border-radius: 4px;
  box-shadow: inset 0 1px 3px rgba(0,0,0,.1);
}
/* checked mark aspect */
[type="checkbox"]:not(:checked) + label:after,
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label:after {
  content: '✔';
  ;
  top: .2em; left: .275em;
  font-size: 1.4em;
  line-height: 0.8;
  color: #512888;
  transition: all .2s;
  font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}
/* checked mark aspect changes */
[type="checkbox"]:not(:checked) + label:after {
  opacity: 0;
  transform: scale(0);
}
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label:after {
  opacity: 1;
  transform: scale(0.9);
}
/* disabled checkbox */
[type="checkbox"]:disabled:not(:checked) + label:before,
[type="checkbox"]:disabled:checked + label:before {
  box-shadow: none;
  border-color: #bbb;
  background-color: #ddd;

Hi bootzilla,

According to your description, I suggest you could try to use F12 develop tools to help you easily modify the check box and radio button's css style.

Notice: I suggest you should pay attention for the browser compatibility issue.

Besides, I suggest you could consider using some third party library to help you achieve your requirement.

For example:

iCheck's radio button and checkbox.

You could choose the radio button and check box with different style.

More details, you could refer to below demo site.
