How it works
- 01Color consultation
You pick a direction; we bring the swatch books and lay physical samples on your paint in daylight. Finish changes how a color reads more than the color chip does.
- 02Design approval
For two-tone layouts, stripes or custom graphics we build a digital mockup on your vehicle and get your sign-off before ordering film.
- 03Surface prep
Full wash, iron decontamination and clay over every panel. Chips are filled or documented; film shows what is under it.
- 04Disassembly and install
Badges, door handles, mirror caps, lights and trim come off. Film goes on panel by panel over 2 to 3 days, post-heated at every edge.
- 05Reassembly and pickup
Hardware goes back on, every edge and seam is inspected, and we go through wash and care before you leave.

What a color change wrap is
A color change wrap covers every painted exterior panel of the vehicle in cast vinyl. It is the full version of a vehicle wrap: hood, roof, doors, fenders, bumpers, mirrors and trunk or tailgate, with the edges tucked under removed hardware so the result reads as paint. Door jambs stay factory unless you ask for them.
The films
3M 1080 is a 3.5 mil cast film with 250+ colors across gloss, matte, satin, metallic, satin metallic, brushed, carbon fiber and gloss flip. It uses an air-release adhesive that lets the installer reposition before pressing down, which matters on long panels like a truck bed side.
Avery Dennison SW900 is a 3.2 mil cast film with its own 250+ color library, including the ColorFlow color-shift series and a Conform Chrome line (Conform Chrome carries a 1-year warranty). Gloss alone has 60+ options.
KPMF fills the specialty gap: iridescent, pearlescent, Starlight glitter and the Absolute Matt flat finish. Cheetah Wrap adds a 3.2 mil cast line with its signature satin aluminum metallics.
All four are cast vinyl. Cast film is poured as a liquid and cured flat, so it has no memory and stays put over compound curves. Calendered film, the budget alternative sold by the roll online, is rolled under tension and will shrink back from edges within a year in the heat. We do not install it.
Choosing a color
Color chips lie. A gloss metallic that looks bright under shop lights goes darker in daylight; a satin reads lighter than its gloss twin. We bring the sample books to your car and lay the finalists on the hood outside. If the project involves two colors, stripes or custom graphics, we build a digital mockup on a photo of your vehicle and you approve it before any film is ordered.
Why wrap instead of repaint
Three reasons come up most. A quality repaint of a whole car is a bigger bill than a wrap and takes the car away for weeks. A repaint is permanent. A wrap comes off, and the factory paint underneath has spent the whole time protected from UV and light scratches. The full comparison is on our wrap vs paint page.
Trucks and SUVs
Trucks are quoted between the car and SUV tiers because the cab and bed add panel area but the shapes are simple. Full-size SUVs like a Tahoe or Expedition sit at the top because of the roof, the liftgate and the amount of lower cladding. Truck wraps have their own page with the common layouts.
Care
Hand wash with a pH-neutral soap or use a touchless wash. Skip brush washes, and keep pressure washers a foot or more from every edge. Gloss film can be sealed with a wrap-safe spray sealant; matte and satin cannot take wax or polish. Bird droppings and bugs come off within a day in summer. Park in shade when it is available. Do that and the film reaches its 3-year warranty term without a lifted edge.
Scheduling
A full car is a 2- to 3-day drop-off; an SUV is 3 days. If you want a chrome delete or tint in the same visit, say so when you request a quote and we will build it into one booking.
Questions
How much does a color change wrap cost on Maui?
From $3,999 for a car and $4,500 for a full-size SUV. Trucks fall between those numbers depending on cab and bed length. Specialty finishes like chrome and color-shift cost more because the film does.
How long does a color change wrap take?
A full car is a 2- to 3-day drop-off and a full SUV takes 3 days. A partial color change takes 1 to 2 days.
How long does a color change wrap last?
3M 1080 and Avery Dennison SW900 both carry a 3-year outdoor warranty against peeling, bubbling and fade. Hand washing and shade parking help the film reach that term under Maui sun.
Can a wrap be removed?
Yes. Cast vinyl removes cleanly within its 3-year window and the factory paint is as it was the day the wrap went on. See our wrap removal page for timing and cost.
What vinyl brands do you use?
3M 1080 and Avery Dennison SW900 for most projects. KPMF for iridescent, pearlescent and Starlight finishes, and Cheetah Wrap for its satin aluminum metallics.
Does a wrap damage the paint?
No. It protects it. The film takes the UV, light scratches and bug etching that would otherwise hit the clear coat. The exception is paint that was resprayed and not fully cured, which can lift on removal.
Is a wrap cheaper than paint?
A quality wrap costs less than a quality repaint, is done in days rather than weeks, and can be reversed. Our wrap vs paint comparison goes through the trade-offs.
Can you wrap a leased car?
Yes. The wrap comes off before the car goes back and the factory paint is underneath. We recommend removal a week or two before the return date.
Are door jambs wrapped?
Door jambs stay factory unless you ask for them. Every other painted exterior panel is covered, with the edges tucked under removed hardware so the result reads as paint.
Can I see a two-tone or graphics design before you start?
Yes. For two-tone layouts, stripes or custom graphics we build a digital mockup on a photo of your vehicle, and you approve it before any film is ordered.
Can I add a chrome delete or tint in the same visit?
Yes. Chrome delete and tint can be built into the same booking as the wrap, so the car comes in once.
