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 Sittingbourne
- Valeters, driving instructors and mobile mechanics working in Sittingbourne often use their own car as their shopfront, so its finish says something about the work.
- Driving between appointments across Kent and into Sittingbourne, a branded car keeps your name in view at junctions, on school runs and in residential streets.
- Leased cars can be run in your brand colours around Sittingbourne and handed back in factory paint later, as long as the lease allows it.

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 Sittingbourne project
Metallic
Flecked film that catches the light like metallic paint.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Sittingbourne
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.
