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.
The case for car wraps and colour change in Strood
- In a Strood car park full of silver, grey and white cars, a satin or matt colour change is hard to miss when clients arrive.
- Leased cars can be run in your brand colours around Strood and handed back in factory paint later, as long as the lease allows it.
- Company cars parked outside clients' offices in Strood can carry a small, tasteful logo on the doors rather than a full van-style livery.
What car wraps and colour change cost in Strood
Here is the price picture for car wraps and colour change in Strood: a guide of £1,950 to £3,750 per car, with VAT on top. The rows below give more detail. A survey or artwork check comes first, and then we confirm the price in writing.
| 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.
Options for your Strood project
Satin
A soft sheen that hides fine swirl marks.
Gloss
A paint-like shine and the easiest finish to keep clean.
Matt
Flat and striking; washed clean rather than polished.
Rules for vehicle graphics in Strood
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.
