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.
What car wraps and colour change can do for businesses in Kidsgrove
- Leased cars can be run in your brand colours around Kidsgrove and handed back in factory paint later, as long as the lease allows it.
- Valeters, driving instructors and mobile mechanics working in Kidsgrove often use their own car as their shopfront, so its finish says something about the work.
- Driving between appointments across Staffordshire and into Kidsgrove, 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 Kidsgrove
The figures in this table are guide prices, from £1,950 to £3,750 per car, and they exclude VAT. They are there to help you plan. A firm price follows the survey or artwork check and is agreed before any work starts.
| 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.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Kidsgrove
For vehicles, the paperwork is about DVLA and your insurer, not the planning department. Graphics on a van or car that is normally driven around fall outside advertisement control; only a vehicle parked mainly as an advertising hoarding is caught. A change of main colour means updating the colour on your V5C and telling your insurer. We leave the windscreen and front side windows clear, because the Construction and Use Regulations 1986 require at least 75% and 70% light through them, and we check the paint is sound factory finish before wrapping. If the vehicle is leased, confirm the lease permits graphics and how they must come off.
