Vehicle Graphics
Design, printing and installation of vehicle graphics for trade customers — new designs, faithful replication of existing graphics, and updates to designs that have dated. From measuring up and proofing through to fitting.
What we offer
- New graphics — designing a livery or set of graphics from a brief, a logo or an existing brand.
- Replicating existing graphics — reproducing a livery on a replacement panel or repaired vehicle, or on a new vehicle joining an existing set, so that it matches.
- Updating older graphics — refreshing a design that has dated while keeping it recognisable.
- Printing and cutting — producing the graphics to the agreed proof.
- Installation — fitting the graphics to the vehicle.
How a graphics job works
- Brief. Tell us about the vehicle, what the graphics are for and what you have already — a logo, artwork, photographs of the existing livery or a description of the idea.
- Measuring and design. We take the vehicle's dimensions and prepare a design.
- Proof. You receive proofs to approve before anything is printed. Amendments are made at this stage.
- Print, cut and install. Once the proof is approved, the graphics are produced and fitted.
Send us photographs of the vehicle and any existing artwork, and tell us what the graphics need to do. We'll confirm what we can provide, the cost and the timing.
Graphics for repaired and replacement panels
Bodyshops meet this problem regularly: a liveried vehicle comes in for repair, a panel is replaced, and the graphics on the new panel have to match the rest of the vehicle exactly. Because we also source the genuine panels, a bodyshop can raise the panel and the replacement graphics in one enquiry and have both ready for the same repair.
Who the service is for
Garages, bodyshops, fleet operators, commercial vehicle operators and other trade customers. We do not offer vehicle graphics directly to the public; a private customer's repairer or vehicle supplier can arrange it through us. For the other services we currently offer, see other services, or contact us with the details.
Artwork, files and proofs
Good graphics start with good artwork. If you have a logo or livery, send it in the best format you have — vector files (AI, EPS, SVG or PDF) reproduce cleanly at any size; high-resolution images can work for photographic elements. If all you have is a photograph of an existing livery, we can work from that to redraw it. Every job goes through a proof stage: you see the design on the vehicle's dimensions and approve it, or ask for changes, before anything is printed.
Where graphics sit in a repair
For bodyshops the practical question is sequencing: graphics go on after paint has cured, so the replacement panel, the paint and the graphics need to be planned together. Raise the graphics with the panel request and we will time the two so the vehicle is not held waiting for the last step.
