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 Motherwell
- Valeters, driving instructors and mobile mechanics working in Motherwell often use their own car as their shopfront, so its finish says something about the work.
- For a new business launching in Motherwell, a car wrapped in brand colours can be changed back if the branding moves on, with no respray involved.
- In a Motherwell 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 Motherwell
Budgeting for car wraps and colour change? The guide below runs from £1,950 to £3,750 per car. VAT is extra. Size, materials and access decide where your job lands, and we confirm it in writing after surveying or checking 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 Motherwell
For vehicle graphics in Scotland, think DVLA and insurance rather than planning. A vehicle that is normally driven is outside advertisement control, though one parked up mainly as an advertisement is not. If the main colour changes, update the colour on your V5C and tell your insurer. We keep all graphics clear of the windscreen and front side windows, which need at least 75% and 70% light transmission under the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations. Before wrapping, we check the paintwork: chips, rust, poor resprays or failing lacquer can lift when the wrap is removed later.
Covering Motherwell and Lanarkshire
Yes, Motherwell is covered, as is the rest of Lanarkshire. For signs that are fixed to a wall or wired in, we arrange a visit to survey first. For window film, lettering or vehicle graphics, a set of photos with measurements is often all we need to put a price together. The Motherwell postcode districts we quote for include ML1, ML4 and ML3. Roughly 7.4 miles separate Motherwell from East Kilbride, which lies to the west.
