Do you work across County Londonderry or only in Derry/Londonderry?

Across all of County Londonderry, and the rest of the UK too. Derry/Londonderry is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Will a wrap protect the paint underneath?

It helps. While the film is on, it shields the paint from sun fade, light scuffs and bird droppings, which is one reason some owners of newer cars choose a wrap over a respray. It isn't armour, though: a sharp stone or a car-park knock can still mark the film and occasionally the paint below.

Will the location in Derry/Londonderry affect the cost of car wraps and colour change?

Location is one factor among several, alongside size, material, access equipment and design time. Our guide range is £1,950–£3,750 per car + VAT; any travel, parking or access costs for your site in Derry/Londonderry are included in the written quote we confirm after a survey or artwork check, so you can see them before you commit.

How long does a colour-change wrap last?

Manufacturers commonly rate quality cast colour-change films at around 5–7 years for vertical surfaces like the doors. The roof, bonnet and boot lid take more sun and weather, so they age faster. The colour and finish play a part too, as do where the car is parked and how it's washed.

Can you wrap a leased or financed car?

Usually, but read the agreement first. Agreements normally set out whether cosmetic changes are allowed and what condition the car must be in when it goes back. A colour change will have to come off before return, and the paint underneath needs to be sound for that to go smoothly, so mention the lease when you ask for a price.

What can delay car wraps and colour change in Derry/Londonderry?

The usual causes are artwork changes after the proof stage, waiting for consent, access arrangements such as a council licence for scaffolding on the pavement, and weather for outdoor fitting. Jobs typically run smoothly once the proof is approved and any consent is in place, but we do not promise dates that depend on things outside our control.

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 County Londonderry

Does a wrapped or lettered vehicle count as an advertisement under Northern Ireland's planning rules? Not while it is used as a vehicle. Councils can treat a vehicle parked mainly to display an advert as a sign, but day-to-day livery is outside control. Registration in Northern Ireland sits with DVLA, as it does in Great Britain, so a change of main colour goes on the V5C and your insurer needs telling. The law sets minimums for the front glass: at least 75% of light through the windscreen and 70% through the front side windows, which is why our designs leave them untouched. Leased vehicles may carry conditions on graphics and their removal.

Options worth considering

Colour-shift

Changes colour with the viewing angle; needs the most care.

Metallic

Flecked film that catches the light like metallic paint.

Gloss

A paint-like shine and the easiest finish to keep clean.
