Car Wraps

It’s not difficult to design your own eye-catching car wrap. You can make a high-quality vehicle wrap design without being a graphic design expert. There are plenty of vehicle wrapping design templates you can choose from online, and you can use the company’s logo and contact information for the vehicle graphics.

There are several other factors to consider, such as whether the company wants a partial wrap, a full wrap, a sticker, or just a decal. You’ll also need to know what kind of vehicle, such as whether it’s a cargo van, race car, or truck wrap. Many car wrap designers pick up the know-how quickly and can DIY custom vehicle wrap mock-ups in no time.

Pricing for a custom design for a car wrap can be as little as $25. However, the more expensive part comes when you take it to the wrap shop. A typical wrapping company will charge between $1,500 and $3,000, depending on the size of the vehicle and the wrap. The installer will charge more for a van wrap than for a BMW or Audi car wrap, for example.

Car wrapping is perfectly safe as long as you take care of the wrap after it’s been applied. Vinyl wraps can be applied to both glossy and matte paint jobs, but it’s important to remember that excessive sun exposure can cause a wrap to “bake in” to your vehicle. That could make the wrap harder to remove or could degrade the wrap itself over time.

A custom car wrap can last as long as five years if you take care of it. Parking the vehicle on the street or in direct sunlight will make your wrap degrade faster, so be sure to take care of your vehicle after you’ve had it wrapped and park it in a garage for a longer-lasting wrap.
