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 Yate
- For a new business launching in Yate, a car wrapped in brand colours can be changed back if the branding moves on, with no respray involved.
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Yate can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.
- In a Yate car park full of silver, grey and white cars, a satin or matt colour change is hard to miss when clients arrive.
What car wraps and colour change cost in Yate
Pricing for car wraps and colour change is worked out job by job, but the guide range is £1,950 to £3,750 per car + VAT. The table lists typical options. Your figure is confirmed only after a site survey or a check of the artwork you send.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Full colour change, small or medium car | £1,950 – £2,850 | £2,340 – £3,420 |
| Full colour change, large car or SUV | £2,650 – £3,750 | £3,180 – £4,500 |
| 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.
Options for your Yate project
Matt
Flat and striking; washed clean rather than polished.
Gloss
A paint-like shine and the easiest finish to keep clean.
Part wrap
Roof, mirrors, bonnet or a chrome delete on window trim and grille.
Rules for vehicle graphics in Yate
Think road rules rather than planning rules. In England a vehicle normally used for driving is outside advertisement control, although parking one somewhere chiefly as a billboard can bring it back within the council's remit. Three checks matter more. Tell DVLA, via the V5C, and your insurer if the main colour changes. Keep the windscreen at 75% light transmission or better and the front side windows at 70% or better, as the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require. And for lease vehicles, read the agreement for what it says about graphics and removal. We plan every layout around all three.
Covering Yate and Gloucestershire
Our coverage takes in Yate, the rest of Gloucestershire and the rest of the UK. Fitted signs usually start with a site visit so the wall can be measured, the fixings checked and access planned. Window and vehicle graphics can often be priced from your own pictures instead. The Yate postcode districts we quote for include BS37. From Gloucester, Yate is roughly 24 miles to the south.
