Often we want a little more than we can really afford and sometimes it’s even possible to get it! There are ways to attain the look of a full vehicle wrap by combining decals and integrating photo realistic images in ways that allow you to economize. For example you can reduce the area to be covered from 100% down to 50% by simply wrapping the rear panels of a utility vehicle and placing a colorful logo and one color lettering on the door panels and rear. When properly designed the appearance can be similar to that of full vehicle wrap while the cost saving of leaving out the hood, rear door, and front side panels can result in a significant saving. Here is a list of things that you can do to cut costs:
• Shrink the size or reduce the number of photo realistic images included in the design
• Reduce the area that will be wrapped, e.g. rear panels only combined with cut vinyl graphic lettering elsewhere
• Reduce the number of colors and use cut vinyl lettering wherever possible
• Standardize on one color for text (allowing for the use of cut vinyl vs. premium cast vinyl)
