If your car or truck needs a paint job, consider doing a color-change vinyl wrap. Vinyl is cheaper than paint and, as an added bonus, there’s no commitment. I like that. For those of us with commitment issues (you know who you are) this is a perfect type of application.

If you own a classic vehicle that may be a collector’s item, painting will devalue it but a vinyl wrap will not. Vinyl color-change wrap gives a restored look to the vehicle without depreciating your investment.

Color-change vehicle wraps are used on both early and late model vehicles


We often wrap vehicles directly from the dealership for new owners who want to create a custom look. Some new vehicles have a very limited color selection, while vinyl wrap is available in all kinds of colors and finishes. Matte finish color-change is trending now but let’s say next year you’re ready for a change and want a bright shiny finish. It’s a simple thing to have it removed and new vinyl installed…or not. Because, guess what, vinyl acts as a protective barrier and your paint underneath will be perfect! Now that’s a beautiful thing!

Almost any vehicle can be wrapped. A clever design, a splash of contrasting colors, and large in-your-face contact info, is usually the vehicle wrap standard set-up…but not always...which is the case for Illusions latest vehicle wrap. 

An unusual request

We received a request to wrap a limo and a hearse in our Wild Oak camouflage vinyl. Totally all camo, no bright contrasting colors, no contact information, no call to action, and yet it is definitely the perfect wrap for our client’s business needs and a big hit with the dearly departed.

Camo Hearse Vehicle Wrap

Apparently this type of funeral package is in demand. Who knew?


A themed branded design makes a perfect vehicle wrap

Just as branding hinges on quick recognition, vehicle wraps should follow the same rules. With UPS, it's the dark brown color that we all recognize. With our customer Bayonet Plumbing, it’s the green and orange colors.

Consider what your business is and what colors or images represent it. The images or colors used should let people know about your business immediately, before they read anything.

Sometimes the type of vehicle tells the tale of your business, as with the hearse. When that is the case, why not let creativity loose and break some rules!
