How Much Does It Cost to Wrap a Truck?
Quick answer: A professional full color change wrap on a truck usually runs about $4,000 to $6,000. The price depends on your truck's size, how much of it gets covered, and the vinyl.
Want a custom, one-of-a-kind look instead of a whole new color? The Topo Full Car Kit is $149, and it comes with a FREE $55 Booster. You design it and put it on yourself.
What You Get With a Pro Truck Wrap
A pro wrap shop covers your whole truck in vinyl. Most people go for a full color change. The truck comes out looking like it was painted a new color.
Here's what you're paying for:
- Enough vinyl to cover every panel
- A trained installer's skill and shop time
- Seamless, full coverage, with the edges trimmed and tucked
Many shops also offer paint protection film. It's a clear layer that guards your paint from chips.
A pro wrap is worth it if you want a full color change or paint protection. Good shops do great work. It's a premium service, and it's priced like one.
What Drives the Cost of a Truck Wrap
No two quotes are the same. Here's what moves the price up or down.
Truck size. A full-size pickup has more surface than a mid-size one. More surface means more vinyl and more shop time.
How much you cover. A full wrap costs the most. A partial wrap, like just the hood or the tailgate, costs less.
Vinyl grade. Not all vinyl is created equal. Lower-grade vinyl can get brittle and crack within a year or two, like faded racing stripes on a hood. It can also leave sticky residue when it comes off. Pro-grade cast vinyl costs more, but it lasts longer and is designed to come off cleanly.
Design. One solid color is the simplest job. Printed graphics or a custom design add design time.
Where you live. Shop rates change from town to town.

Full Wrap vs. a DIY Accent Kit
Not everyone wants a whole new color. Plenty of truck owners just want a truck that looks like nobody else's. That's a different job, and it costs a lot less.
| Pro wrap shop | WrapLander DIY kit | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $4,000 to $6,000 | $149 + FREE $55 Booster |
| What you get | Full color change, seamless coverage | A custom, one-of-a-kind design over your paint |
| Who installs it | A trained pro | You, in your own garage, with video tutorials |
| Vinyl | Pro-grade | Pro-grade cast vinyl |
| Best for | A full color change or paint protection | A one-of-a-kind look for a fraction of the cost |
Here's the honest part. Our kit isn't a full color change. It's a custom design, like topo lines, that goes over your paint.
If you want a whole new color, a wrap shop is the right call. If you want a one-of-a-kind look in the same kind of pro-grade vinyl, for a fraction of the cost, that's us.

Can You Wrap Your Own Truck?
Yes. You don't need to be a pro, and you don't need to be artsy. The Topo kit is simple to apply, even for first-timers.
- Every kit is designed by a certified installer, so the hard parts are already figured out.
- Every piece is precision-cut.
- Step-by-step video tutorials walk you through the install.
A few tips:
- Start with a small piece first. Get a quick win before the big panels.
- Lay your design out before you stick anything down. Move pieces around until it looks right. There's no wrong answer.
- Have two tools ready. You'll need a heat gun and a sharp knife or razor blade. They're not in the kit.
One heads-up: vinyl doesn't stick well to ceramic coating. If your truck is ceramic coated, this kit isn't the right fit.
And if you get stuck? The Recovery Guarantee has you covered.

Truck Wrap Cost Questions
How much does it cost to wrap a pickup truck?
A pro full color change wrap on a pickup usually runs about $4,000 to $6,000. Size matters: a bigger truck takes more vinyl and more labor. Want a custom design instead? The Topo Full Car Kit is $149, with a FREE $55 Booster.
Is $149 enough to wrap a truck?
It's not a full wrap. It's a custom design that goes over your paint. It's a universal kit, so you arrange the design to fit your truck and decide how much of it to cover.
How long does a truck wrap last?
Our kits use pro-grade cast vinyl, typically rated to last 5 to 7 years. Regular washing and parking in a garage or shade help it last even longer.
Can I wrap my truck myself?
Yes. The Topo kit is simple to apply, even for first-timers, and step-by-step video tutorials walk you through it. Still get stuck? The Recovery Guarantee has you covered. We'll send extra material to get you unstuck. You just cover shipping.
Will a wrap damage my truck's paint?
Pro-grade cast vinyl is designed to come off cleanly when you're ready for a new look. Lower-grade vinyl can get brittle, crack, and leave sticky residue behind. That's why every WrapLander kit uses cast vinyl.
Will it hold up on the trail?
It's built for sun, snow, slush, mud, dirt, and normal trail brush. It's tough, not bulletproof. If something would damage your paint, it'll damage the vinyl too.
Can I take a wrapped truck through a car wash?
As with any custom vinyl work on a vehicle, we recommend hand washing. That's the same advice pro wrap installers give. That said, many of our customers take theirs through automatic car washes with no problems.
Get the Look Without the $4,000 Price
