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.
Where car wraps and colour change can pay off in Ballymena
- A matching black roof and chrome delete is a modest way for a Ballymena business to make its pool cars look like a set.
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Ballymena can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.
- Leased cars can be run in your brand colours around Ballymena and handed back in factory paint later, as long as the lease allows it.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Ballymena
Planning for car wraps and colour change in Northern Ireland? The council's advertisement rules generally do not apply to vehicles in normal use, though a vehicle stationed mainly as an advert can be treated as one. The points to watch are DVLA, insurance and visibility: update the V5C if the main colour changes, let your insurer know, and keep the windscreen (75% light minimum) and front side windows (70%) free of graphics. Rear one-way vision film is used on vans and cars with two exterior mirrors. For leased vehicles, check the agreement on graphics and removal.
