A car wrap is a thin cast vinyl film applied over the factory paint to change the car's colour or finish, either across every panel or on selected parts such as the roof or mirrors.
Points in favour of car wraps and colour change in Luton
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Luton can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.
- Valeters, driving instructors and mobile mechanics working in Luton often use their own car as their shopfront, so its finish says something about the work.
- Estate agents, mobile hairdressers and home-visit professionals who drive around Luton all day can add neat branding to a car without repainting it.
What car wraps and colour change cost in Luton
We publish guide prices so you can plan before you get in touch. For car wraps and colour change the range is £1,950–£3,750 per car, not including VAT, and the final price is confirmed after we survey the site or check the artwork.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Full colour change, small or medium car | £1,950 – £2,850 | £2,340 – £3,420 |
| Full colour change, large car or SUV | £2,650 – £3,750 | £3,180 – £4,500 |
| Roof, mirrors or bonnet only | £195 – £650 | £234 – £780 |
Price rises with the size of the car, complex bumpers and deep curves, how much trim has to come off, and the film itself, as metallic and colour-shift films cost more than gloss. Door shuts are quoted separately. All prices exclude VAT and are confirmed once we've seen the car or detailed photos.
Options for your Luton project
Matt
Flat and striking; washed clean rather than polished.
Part wrap
Roof, mirrors, bonnet or a chrome delete on window trim and grille.
Gloss
A paint-like shine and the easiest finish to keep clean.
Rules for vehicle graphics in Luton
Think road rules rather than planning rules. In England a vehicle normally used for driving is outside advertisement control, although parking one somewhere chiefly as a billboard can bring it back within the council's remit. Three checks matter more. Tell DVLA, via the V5C, and your insurer if the main colour changes. Keep the windscreen at 75% light transmission or better and the front side windows at 70% or better, as the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require. And for lease vehicles, read the agreement for what it says about graphics and removal. We plan every layout around all three.
Covering Luton and Bedfordshire
Coverage is nationwide, which means Luton and the surrounding parts of Bedfordshire are included as standard. Anything fixed to a building normally needs someone on site to measure and check fixings and access; simpler graphics can usually be quoted from images you send. The Luton postcode districts we quote for include LU1, LU2, LU3 and LU4.
