Home / Vehicle Graphics & Wraps
Designed & fitted in Southport
Make your business recognisable wherever the working day takes you. From clear vinyl lettering to a distinctive van wrap, we create vehicle branding that puts your name, services and contact details in view.
Enigma Signs brings design, graphics production and fitting together, with layouts made to suit your vehicle and your business.
The right amount of impact
A vehicle does not need to be covered from bumper to bumper to carry a strong message. We help you choose the right mix of lettering, graphics and wrapped areas, using the shape and colour of your vehicle as part of the design.
Have several vehicles to brand? We can discuss a consistent fleet design and adapt the layout to different makes and models, so each vehicle carries the same business identity.
Cost-effective van signwriting
This Wilson Healy Automobile Engineering van shows how much impact a straightforward vinyl lettering scheme can make. Blue business lettering, a car-and-spanner logo and a fine blue stripe work with the white bodywork to create a clear, professional identity.
Applied lettering keeps the coverage simple and makes the existing vehicle colour part of the design. The business name, services and telephone number each have a clear place in the layout. It is a cost-effective approach to van signwriting for businesses that want to be noticed without the coverage of a larger wrap.
The Wilson Healy name and car-and-spanner logo give this white Renault Kangoo a strong focal point. Blue lettering and a slim stripe bring colour to the layout, while black service information and the telephone number remain easy to pick out. This front-quarter view shows how a simple vinyl lettering scheme can create a professional business vehicle without covering large areas of the bodywork.
This closer side view shows the information behind the branding. The service list sits below the large business name, with the SERVICE / MOT line and telephone number across the door and the Southport address along the lower panel. Black lettering contrasts with the white van, while the blue stripe links the sections. A considered layout makes a cost-effective lettering package look smart and purposeful.
The bonnet carries the Wilson Healy logo, business name and telephone number, extending the branding beyond the side panels. The same blue and black colours continue along the doors and rear side panel, bringing the different views together. It is a practical example of using selected areas of a van for clear, consistent advertising while leaving the original white paint visible.

From the workshop to the finished vehicle
This black van was given a purple wrap across the rear and lower side areas. The purple film creates the colour foundation; the Cottage of Dreams logos, butterflies and lettering are then applied as separate vinyl elements.
The design uses both finishes: darker purple branding sits over the wrap, while turquoise lettering and lighter butterflies stand out against the black areas. These photographs show the fitting work, the wrapped panels before lettering, and the completed result.
An installation photograph shows the purple wrap being worked around the rear wheel arch. The fitter uses a squeegee to smooth the film against the panel while the remaining material is still loose below. It is a useful close-up of the hands-on work involved in shaping a vehicle wrap before the logos, lettering and decorative graphics complete the project.
Before the logos and lettering are added, the purple partial wrap establishes the shape of the design. This workshop view shows the wrap across the rear doors and rear side panel, with a sweeping transition into the van's original black finish. Showing this stage helps explain the difference between the wrapped colour areas and the vinyl graphics applied afterwards.
This view captures the purple rear wrap before the finishing graphics are fitted. The colour follows the rear door shapes and the contours of the side panel, creating a continuous base for the design. With the lettering still to come, the photograph gives customers a useful look at the wrapping work beneath the finished vehicle branding.
This Cottage of Dreams van combines a purple partial wrap with separately applied vinyl graphics. The rear panels create a bold backdrop for the house logo, butterflies and business name, while the original black bodywork remains part of the design. It is a strong example of how wrapping and lettering can work together to give a business vehicle a distinctive identity.
The completed rear doors carry the Cottage of Dreams logo, Mental Health & Wellbeing Hub wording and contact details over the purple wrap. Butterfly graphics link the back of the van with the side design, while the large side logo keeps the branding consistent from another angle. This closer view shows the separately applied vinyl elements on top of the wrapped panels.
The side of the Cottage of Dreams van brings the full design together: a purple rear wrap and lower sweep, butterfly graphics and turquoise vinyl lettering against the black bodywork. The service description sits on the side panel, with the website, telephone number and social icons on the front door. Each element has its own space within the overall layout.
The finished rear-quarter view shows how the purple wrap and applied vinyl graphics continue across the van's panels. Large house logos give the brand a clear focal point, with butterflies carrying the theme around the vehicle. The business name and contact details complete the layout, bringing the rear and side branding together in one recognisable design.
A partial wrap can make the vehicle's existing colour part of its branding. Here, the black van provides a contrasting background for purple butterflies and turquoise lettering, while the purple wrapped areas frame the rear logo and continue along the lower side. This finished side view shows how a mixed approach to wrapping and vinyl graphics creates a cohesive result.
Partial van wrap • Vinyl lettering
Easy Roofing’s white van becomes a recognisable business vehicle with an orange partial wrap across the rear bodywork. The curved colour boundary uses the original white cab as part of the design, while contrasting logos, service lettering and contact details give the van a clear purpose on the road.
The workshop photographs show the orange vinyl being fitted and the wrapped panels before the branding is added. Finished views then show how the roof logo, white lettering and rear-door layout turn that colour treatment into a complete advertisement for the business.
The front and side view shows how the white cab is deliberately included in the design. A sweeping orange boundary leads into the wrapped rear panels, while the business logo and service lettering use strong contrast to keep the message easy to pick out.
The rear-door layout uses the available space for the business name, roofing services, loft insulation message and contact details. The customer’s roof-themed slogan adds personality, while the orange wrap links the rear view to the side graphics.
A closer installation photograph shows the orange vinyl being worked around the side panel. Positioning magnets and cutting tape are visible, and the lower moulding is temporarily removed so the wrap can be fitted around the panel details before the finishing work.
With the orange base vinyl fitted, the rear doors and side panels are still free of logos and text. Comparing this stage with the finished van shows the difference between wrapping the bodywork and adding the individual branding elements over it.
The wrapped van is shown before the business graphics are added. This wider workshop view makes the orange coverage and curved boundary easy to follow, showing the colour foundation that will sit behind the finished logos and lettering.
A broad side panel gives the Easy Roofing name and roof symbol room to stand out. The service list sits below the main logo, and the same orange-and-white theme continues around to the rear doors for a coordinated finish.
This angle shows the design on the other side of the van. The orange rear section, large logo and service lettering follow the same visual approach, with the curved transition keeping the partial wrap connected to the original white bodywork.

Van lettering • Business graphics
AntiBac Cleaning Solutions’ van combines a bold business name with bright green bubble graphics on the original white bodywork. The repeated shapes carry the theme around the vehicle, making the side and rear feel like one design.
The lettering gives the graphics a practical role: the side identifies the business, the door carries contact information, and the rear lists the cleaning services. It is a useful example of how carefully placed vehicle graphics can create a distinctive business identity without covering every panel.
Bright green bubbles give the AntiBac van a recognisable theme, while the large black business name anchors the side layout. The contact information and rear service list make the vehicle useful as an advertisement from more than one direction.

Minibus partial wrap • Contra Vision window graphics
For Duct Clear, we created a partial wrap on a high-roof Transit minibus, combining flowing green and turquoise graphics with a large logo, a clear service message and prominent contact details. The design uses both the body panels and window areas to give the vehicle a consistent identity.
Contra Vision window graphics let the branding continue over the glazing while allowing people inside to see out through the film’s perforations. The rear window artwork features an extractor-hood image, connecting the design directly to the kitchen extract and duct cleaning service.
The full side view shows why window graphics are useful on a minibus: the green and turquoise design can extend across the glazed area as well as the body panels. The large logo, service strip and high-level telephone number establish a clear order for the information.
Seen from the rear quarter, the graphics connect the long side layout to the rear-door branding. The extractor-hood image adds a visual reference to the customer’s work, while the logo and contact lettering give viewers the information needed to recognise and contact the business.
The rear windows carry an extractor-hood image using Contra Vision film. Its perforations allow an outward view from inside while the printed image gives the exterior a branded finish, extending the advertising area beyond the painted panels.
The opposite rear-quarter view brings the side graphics and rear window image together. Matching colours, repeated branding and carefully placed contact details help the partial wrap read as a complete vehicle design from several angles.
This wider photograph shows the vehicle in its everyday street setting. The large logo and broad areas of colour remain the main features at a distance, demonstrating why a vehicle layout needs to communicate its central message before the smaller details.
The one-way vision effect works best when it is brighter outside than inside; its appearance changes with lighting conditions. Ask us about the right window graphics for your vehicle. Talk to us about your vehicle ↗

Vehicle lettering • Bespoke advertising display
A small vehicle can carry a big idea. For Wilson Wheel Care, we combined vinyl lettering on a compact grey flatbed with a bespoke wheel-shaped advertising sign mounted behind the cab. The oversized alloy-wheel graphic makes the business’s speciality immediately recognisable, while the lettering supplies the name and contact details.
The finished display brings vehicle graphics and sign-making together: a circular frame supports the wheel sign, a tyre-tread design adds depth around the edge, and the branded face carries the alloy wheel repair message. These photographs show the framework, the construction work and the completed vehicle.
The completed Wilson Wheel Care vehicle pairs door branding and a clear telephone number with a wheel-shaped sign that makes the service the main visual feature. The silver alloy-wheel image, black tyre design and contrasting repair lettering work together to create a distinctive advertisement on a compact vehicle.
From the workshop to the finished display: the frame → the tyre-shaped surround → the wheel sign and vehicle lettering.
Before the wheel graphics are added, this photograph shows the two circular hoops and upright supports in the load bed. The open framework reveals the structure behind the finished display and shows how the sign’s circular shape is established at the start of the build.
A workshop photograph captures the tyre-tread surround being fastened to the circular frame, with clamps holding the material in position during assembly. This stage gives the sign its depth and wheel-like appearance before the finished face and vehicle lettering complete the advertising display.

Theatre promotion • Vintage bus graphics
A vintage open-top bus becomes part of the show with bold vinyl lettering, colourful logos and illustrated graphics for Topless. The large show title gives the vehicle an unmistakable identity, while the cream and maroon bodywork keeps its original character.
This project shows how applied vehicle graphics can bring a theatre production to life. The design carries across both sides and the rear, combining the show artwork, performer’s name and booking information in a layout made for the bus.
The colourful Topless title and illustrated character give the bus a bold theatrical presence. Large lettering makes the show name the focal point, with Holly Lovelady’s name and the production message worked into the remaining panels.
The opposite side carries the same strong show identity, with lettering and artwork arranged around the windows and body panels. The production credits and booking panel add supporting information while the oversized title catches the eye.
The rear brings the show name, description and booking details together in one clear view. Contrasting lettering stands out against the cream and maroon panels, carrying the theatre promotion around to the back of the vehicle.
This second angle shows how the different elements work together: the multicoloured title, character illustration, performer’s name and smaller show information. The applied graphics create a distinctive promotion while retaining the vintage bus’s appearance.

Commercial vehicle signwriting
The Riley’s Removals DAF lorry demonstrates a different approach: vinyl lettering and logo graphics use the vehicle’s white bodywork as their background.
The large side lettering gives the business name room to stand out. The photographs also show over-cab branding and cab-door contact details. It is a useful example of commercial vehicle signwriting without covering the whole body in a wrap.
This DAF removals lorry shows the impact of vinyl lettering on a large commercial vehicle. The Riley's Removals name appears above the cab and across the body, with contact details positioned on the cab door. The white vehicle provides a clean backdrop for the lettering, demonstrating a straightforward way to create recognisable business branding without a full wrap.
The broad side of this Riley's Removals lorry gives the business name room to stand out. Large dark lettering is accompanied by the moving-truck and parcel motif, with Southport included beneath the name. This side view demonstrates how vinyl lettering and logo graphics can use the scale of a commercial vehicle while leaving its original white finish visible.
One team, from idea to fitting
Good vehicle branding starts with a clear message and a layout that works around doors, handles, panel shapes and viewing angles. We discuss the details with you before the graphics are produced.
Send its make, model and year, photographs of the sides and rear, your logo and the information you want displayed. Let us know about existing graphics and any deadline.
We discuss the coverage, colours and positioning. Your business name, services and contact details should work together without the layout becoming crowded.
Once the design and specification are agreed, we arrange production and fitting. The vehicle’s condition and chosen finish guide the preparation and installation work.
The fitted graphics are checked around the panels and edges. Ask us about caring for the chosen film so your new branding can be cleaned appropriately.
Start with your vehicle & your idea
Whether you need lettering for one van, a partial wrap or a coordinated fleet design, tell us what you have in mind. We’ll review the vehicle and help you decide on the right approach.
A few practical answers
Vinyl lettering and logos are individual shapes applied to the vehicle, leaving the paint visible around them. A wrap covers a larger area with film. The two can be combined: our Cottage of Dreams van has a purple partial wrap with separate vinyl graphics applied afterwards.
It depends on the look you want, the information you need to display and your budget. Lettering can provide a clear business identity, while a partial wrap introduces larger areas of colour. A full wrap gives more space for a continuous design. We can discuss the options for your vehicle.
The quote depends on the vehicle, the amount of coverage, artwork requirements, materials and fitting work. Existing graphics and the condition of the bodywork can affect preparation. Send us photographs and your brief so we can quote for the work you actually need.
Send your logo and any brand guidelines with the enquiry. We’ll review the artwork and discuss how it can be used on your vehicle. If you have several vehicles, the same identity can be adapted to suit their different sizes and shapes.
Fitting time varies with the coverage, vehicle size and preparation required. Tell us about any deadline when you enquire. We’ll discuss availability and the time needed for your particular lettering or wrap project before arranging fitting.
Send close-up photographs of the existing graphics and bodywork. We need to assess the current film and surface condition before advising on removal, preparation and new graphics. Removal results depend on the old material, its age and the paint beneath it.
Follow the care guidance for the film fitted to your vehicle. As a general precaution, clean gently and avoid directing a pressure washer at film edges. Ask us for advice about your particular graphics and suitable cleaning products.
Enigma Signs is based at Units 1–3, 21 Sussex Road, Southport, PR9 0SS. Contact us to discuss vehicle graphics, van signwriting, partial wraps and lorry lettering, and to arrange fitting.
