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.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Exmouth

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.

Car wraps and colour change in Exmouth: questions

Is Exmouth inside your coverage area for car wraps and colour change?

It is. We work throughout the UK rather than in a single region, so Exmouth and every part of Devon are included. Where a survey is needed we arrange a visit; for graphics jobs we can often quote from photos and measurements. Either way, you get a proof and a written price first.

What is the typical timescale for car wraps and colour change from enquiry to fitting?

A quote typically follows once we have your photos or have surveyed the site, and making and fitting is typically booked a few weeks after you approve the proof. Where advertisement consent applies, that decision has to come through before anything goes up, which can add several weeks. We give you an expected timescale with your quote for Exmouth.

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.

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.

Do you have to tell DVLA about a colour-change wrap?

Yes, if the wrap changes the car's main colour. Update the colour on the V5C log book with DVLA, and tell your insurer before you drive the car in its new colour. A part wrap such as a black roof or mirrors doesn't change the main colour, so the V5C stays as it is, though it's still worth mentioning to your insurer.

What is the price of car wraps and colour change for a business in Exmouth?

Guide pricing runs from £1,950 to £3,750 per car, plus VAT. The main things that move it are dimensions, the material and finish, illumination where relevant, how high the work is and whether a scaffold or platform is needed. Your written quote, issued after a survey or a check of your artwork, replaces the guide figure.
