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.
Reasons to choose car wraps and colour change in Kirkintilloch
- Valeters, driving instructors and mobile mechanics working in Kirkintilloch often use their own car as their shopfront, so its finish says something about the work.
- In a Kirkintilloch car park full of silver, grey and white cars, a satin or matt colour change is hard to miss when clients arrive.
- Driving between appointments across Glasgow and Dunbartonshire and into Kirkintilloch, a branded car keeps your name in view at junctions, on school runs and in residential streets.
What car wraps and colour change cost in Kirkintilloch
Use these figures to budget: £1,950 to £3,750 per car is the guide range, with VAT added on top. Each line in the table is indicative only, and your exact price is confirmed after a survey or once we have looked over the artwork.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Full colour change, small or medium car | £1,950 – £2,850 | £2,340 – £3,420 |

| 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.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Kirkintilloch
Scotland follows the same approach to vehicle graphics as the rest of the UK. Livery on a van, car or lorry in everyday use is not treated as an advertisement needing consent; the council's interest starts only if a vehicle is parked up chiefly as a sign. What matters instead is the paperwork and the glass. DVLA should be told of any change of main colour through the V5C, and so should your insurer. Light transmission rules set a minimum of 75% for the windscreen and 70% for the front side windows, so our layouts never touch them. Lease or contract hire? Read the terms on graphics and removal first.
