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 Ellesmere Port
- A matching black roof and chrome delete is a modest way for an Ellesmere Port business to make its pool cars look like a set.
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Ellesmere Port can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.
- Estate agents, mobile hairdressers and home-visit professionals who drive around Ellesmere Port all day can add neat branding to a car without repainting it.
What car wraps and colour change cost in Ellesmere Port

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.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Ellesmere Port
Advertisement consent does not usually come into vehicle graphics. Advertisements on a vehicle normally used as a moving vehicle are outside advertisement control in England, although a vehicle parked up mainly to act as a billboard is treated differently. The rules that matter are road and registration ones. If a wrap changes the main colour, update the V5C log book with DVLA and tell your insurer. The windscreen must let through at least 75% of light and the front side windows at least 70% under the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986, so we keep graphics off them. Leased vehicles: check the lease allows graphics.
