Car Wrap Sunshine Coast
A vinyl wrap changes your vehicle's colour and protects the factory paint underneath — without the permanence or cost of a respray. Auto Emporium uses Avery Dennison vinyl for full wraps from $3,500 on small cars, with partial wraps and custom decals also available.
"Robin was excellent to deal with. Very happy with my PPF wrap, chrome delete, window tint, callipers and decals. Will be returning for more work to be done in the near future."
Why Choose Car Vinyl Wrapping From Auto Emporium
A full respray is permanent — the moment you commit to a colour, it's on the ownership record and follows the car at resale. A wrap changes the appearance completely while the factory paint underneath stays untouched, protected, and on record. For a prestige vehicle or a car you plan to sell in a few years, that distinction matters.
Vinyl also opens up finishes a respray can't match. Satin, matte, chrome, brushed metal, colour-shift — these aren't paint options. And if you change your mind, the wrap comes off cleanly.
Auto Emporium uses Avery Dennison vinyl exclusively — one of two materials the industry considers benchmark quality. Installation is carried out at our Caloundra West studio where controlled conditions prevent contamination during application.
- Colour change wraps: Full vehicle transformation from $3,500 (small cars) — reversible, paint-protective, and available in finishes no respray can replicate
- Decals & blackout packs: Racing stripes, black roofs, mirror caps — a targeted way to change the look without committing to a full wrap
- Commercial graphics: Fleet vehicles wrapped with durable, high-impact vinyl that turns every vehicle into a moving billboard
- Avery Dennison material: Industry-benchmark vinyl used by professional installers worldwide — not the cheaper alternatives common in the region
"Rob and the team at Auto Emporium were very helpful and did an awesome job on our 2024 Y62 Warrior. Ask them about their decal changes as we got rid of the red 'WARRIOR' and 'V8' and changed them to black. Very sleek, very precise."

Frequently Asked Questions
Full wraps start from $3,500 (small), $4,500 (medium), and $6,500 (large). Final price depends on vehicle size, vinyl finish, and design complexity — contact us for a tailored quote.
Wrapping is generally much cheaper upfront than a quality respray. It's also fully reversible, which a paint job isn't.
Conservatively 2–3 years of pristine condition in Queensland's UV. Parking under cover and regular hand washing extends this significantly.
Hand wash with pH-neutral soap. Avoid abrasive brushes, harsh chemicals, and high-pressure auto washes. Park under cover where possible.
A wrap won't last as long as a respray in QLD conditions, and the result depends entirely on installation quality. Done professionally, it's a sound investment — done poorly, it peels.
No — vinyl protects the factory paint from UV and light abrasion. Professional removal leaves the paint intact underneath.
The paint must be smooth and adhered. Vinyl conforms tightly to the surface, so scratches and chips will show through. Peeling or flaking clear coat won't hold vinyl at all — paint correction may be required first.
Yes — professionally installed Avery Dennison vinyl is indistinguishable from paint. Wraps also open up finishes paint can't replicate: matte, satin, colour-shift, brushed metal.
