What colour is your car really?
A wrap is the one chance to pick the colour the factory never offered. Start here for direction — then come and see the real swatch book, because every screen lies about film.

Not on the wall?
This is a shortlist, not the range
What you see here is a couple of dozen of the colours we get asked for most. Between the major film manufacturers there are several hundred more — and if none of those is right, film can be printed to a colour you supply. Nothing above is a limit.
Seen it on another car?
Send us the photo. We will identify the film or find the closest match and tell you honestly how close it gets.
Matching something exactly?
A paint code, a brand colour, a bike, a kitchen door — bring the reference and we will match to it, printing custom if we have to.
Cannot decide?
Come and take the swatch book outside. Ten minutes in daylight settles it better than a week of scrolling.
Use the notes box on the build form to describe the colour — the quote comes through with it attached, so we can price the right film before we ring you back.
Screens lie about colour
Every phone renders these swatches differently, and satin versus matte barely survives a photograph at all. Treat this wall as a direction — the decision gets made off the physical swatch book, on a real sample, in the unit. Estimate only — the final price is confirmed once we have seen the car. Nothing is charged online.
Colour questions
Can I have any colour I want?+
Effectively yes. The major film manufacturers run ranges of well over a hundred colours and finishes between them, and for something truly specific there are custom-printed films. The wall on this page is a direction-finder, not a limit — bring a photo of anything and we will find the nearest film to it.
Why don’t you show film brand names?+
Because the exact film for your job gets chosen off the physical swatch book in the unit, where you can see the real colour on a real sample in real light. Screens shift colour with brightness and white balance — a swatch on this page is a starting point, never the contract.
Which colours age best?+
Darker gloss and satin colours are the most forgiving over a three-to-five-year life. Whites and very pale mattes show every mark and demand the most washing discipline. Horizontal panels take the sun hardest whatever the colour, which is why a garaged car keeps a wrap looking newer for longer.
Does the colour change the price?+
The colour itself does not — the finish does. Gloss is the baseline; satin and matte carry a small premium; colour-shift and chrome cost substantially more because the film is dearer per metre and less forgiving to lay, and offcuts cannot be reused. The price on each card below is a full wrap on a hatchback in that finish.
Do I have to update the V5C for a colour change?+
Yes — if the wrap changes the predominant colour of the car, you must notify the DVLA so the logbook matches the road. It is free. Your insurer needs to know about the wrap either way.
