Located at 164 Water Street, South Norwalk Electric and Water (aka SNEW) is owned by the Second Taxing District. The utility is instrumental in providing roughly 14,000 customers with water. After acquiring a work van for the service from Bruce Bennett Nissan in Wilton, a dealership representative contacted our vehicle wrap specialists to discuss a color change wrap that would turn the silver Nissan into a yellow vehicle with the utility’s branding on the driver and passenger doors.

Nissan Van Color Change Wraps in Norwalk, CT

Installing color change wraps is a common practice when business owners invest in leased vehicles for commercial purposes. While the majority of work vans and trucks is either white or silver, plenty of corporate clients understand the importance of branding through mobile marketing with the company’s color scheme. To accomplish this goal, and to keep the leased vehicle in the condition stipulated by the contract, these clients choose wraps over paint jobs. When the contract comes to an end, removing the color change wrap is a snap. In fact, the material protects the original paint so that the company receives top dollar for its vehicle. As is the case with SNEW, the van now displays with the easily recognizable yellow color that customers have come to associate with the utility’s fleet. Additionally, the vinyl wrap material also protects the van’s original silver color. If the company decides to change the color at some point in the future, it does not have to pay for a paint job but merely order the removal of the vinyl covering.

Color Change Wraps are Great for the Hobbyist, Too!

Of course, not every client who orders a color change wrap is a corporate customer. Some are hobbyists who have purchased inexpensive vehicles in spite of a color that simply does not work for them. We love working with these folks because they frequently like to combine boutique materials with amazing design work. Cases in point are wraps featuring alligator or carbon fiber finishes, high gloss black pearl or matte colors, or the new chrome finishes that are real head turners.

Advantages of Wraps vs. Paint Jobs

As we noted, companies, and private individuals, with car leases can alter the vehicle’s appearance without jeopardizing the agreements. But there are other reasons why the color change wrap is superior to a paint job.

• Less expensive. A wrap looks fantastic but is cheaper than a paint job that would deliver the same kind of high-quality finish.
• More creative. Changing a vehicle’s color from silver to yellow is easy for a paint booth operator who understands the trade and is well-versed in the best practices for the job. (Even though it is not cheaper than a wrap.) That said, this same expert would be hard pressed to create a chrome finish or a carbon fiber texture with paint. Only a wrap can make this look come to life.
