How We Determine the Cost of Your Car Wrap

Car wrapping Auckland vehicles can be a complex process, with a lot of different factors impacting how much a particular job costs. If you’re considering having a car, van, or even fleet wrapped, it’s important to go into the process knowing how much certain things can influence your wrapping budget.

At Brave Design, we have a careful process for consulting, designing, and eventually wrapping your vehicle. Read on for a detailed breakdown of how we determine the cost of your car wrap!

Factors That Influence the Cost of Car Wrapping in Auckland

Your Vehicle’s Type and Size

One of the first factors we look at when car wrapping Auckland vehicles is the size and type of the vehicle. This determines the amount of surface area we cover. On top of that, some vehicles – such as buses, vans, or trucks – might have unique shapes that make a car wrap installation more difficult.

Both these factors will influence the overall cost. Generally speaking, wrapping a larger vehicle will cost more than wrapping a small one.

The Complexity of the Design

Thanks to our in-house design team, we can produce all kinds of stand-out wrap designs. Much like any other sign, the complexity of your car wrap’s design will also impact how much it costs.

Simple designs with isolated graphics or a basic company logo are more cost-effective. On the other hand, detailed illustrations, unique gradients, or custom creations will extend the length of the design stage – so they’ll cost more.

Keep in mind that custom modifications and the condition of your vehicle’s surface can make certain installations more complex – and more expensive.

The Area of Coverage

We work with customers who need small pieces of their vehicles wrapped or need a whole-car job. Full-car wraps use more vinyl, which means the cost of the materials goes up, thus increasing your quote. On the other hand, if you just want a window or door wrapped, this will cost much less.

Any Extras You Need

Aside from a base car wrap, additional services like window graphics or protective coatings can add to the bill. While they are an additional investment, many of these peripheral services are designed to make your car wrap more eye-catching or durable.

At Brave Design, we offer a wide range of these additional services that we can tailor to suit your needs. If you’re unsure which additional services you might need, feel free to let us know. We’d be more than happy to walk you through them.

How Quickly You Need it Done

Finally, the speed of the turnaround can impact the cost of car wrapping Auckland vehicles. An urgent turnaround will generally cost more than a standard timeframe, so it’s important to book in early when you can.

While these are general guidelines, we know that budgeting for a car wrap can be tough without a specific price. If you’re considering getting your vehicle or fleet wrapped with Brave Design, we recommend booking a quick consultation to talk about what you need. That way, we’ll be able to provide you with a detailed no-obligation quote you can incorporate into your budget.

In the next section, we’ve broken down our process for quoting and car wrapping Auckland vehicles to give you a better idea of what to expect.

The Process of Quoting and Completing Car Wrapping in Auckland

1.      Initial consultation. We start with a consultation. This is your chance to get in touch with us and let our designers know what you’re after. This is a no-pressure discussion with our experienced team so we can pair you with the right services for your needs.

2.      Quote. Once we’ve narrowed down what you’re after, we’ll reach out with a no-obligation estimate you can use to make your decision. At this stage, if you’re unsure about anything, you can absolutely get in touch with us to talk it through further.

3.      Design and production. If you accept the estimate, then we’ll get started with designing and producing the vehicle wrap to your specifications. If you need creative help during the design stage, we can also provide this as part of our services.

4.      Installation. Once the car wrap is designed and printed, it’s ready to go onto your vehicle. Car wrapping Auckland fleets and vehicles is our bread and butter, so we’ll always give you a timeframe for when you can expect the completed project. Once that’s done, we’ll pass the keys back to you, and you can be on your way.

5.      Maintenance. Vehicle wraps last longer with the right maintenance. If you’re caring for a fleet of wrapped cars, we can work with you to create a maintenance plan that will keep your vehicles in peak condition.
