So, Can You Wrap A Leased Vehicle?

In short, yes, you can wrap a leased vehicle, and most leasing companies and finance providers allow wraps, but you must get permission first.

What You Need To Do

• Check your lease agreement, especially sections relating to “modifications” or “alterations” to check what the company requires.
• Written permission from the lease company is usually needed, which explains the wrap, the installer and emphasises its removability.
• It’s important that you always use a reputable company, like CJ Signs for your wrap, collecting before and after photos.
• You might need to let your insurance company know, as vehicle wraps can sometimes count as modifications and therefore should be declared.
• Finally, you should ensure the wrap is completely removed when you return the vehicle at the end of the lease.

What Leasing Companies Usually Allow

This does vary depending on the company; however, most major UK leasing companies allow wraps as long as:

• You have written permission
• The wrap is removable and leaves no trace
• The vehicle is returned in its original state
