This isn\u2019t the time to pull out every bell and whistle.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Unreadable Fonts.<\/strong>&nbsp;Go simple, seriously. You might consider a font boring, but it\u2019s popular because it\u2019s readable. If you want something fancy, consider using it for \u201cbonus\u201d information when comprehension isn\u2019t critical.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Low Contrast Colors.<\/strong>&nbsp;Be sure the words stand out, and everyone can read them. When you work with a skilled design firm, they will make recommendations that are compliant with visual best practices and consider those who are colorblind.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Designing Without Your Vehicle in Mind.<\/strong>&nbsp;Consider every inch of your vehicle and think about how other drivers on the road sit. Make sure important information is at a level where it can be seen and read. For example, if your car sits low, putting contact information on a bumper may be a bad decision if most other cars sit high on the road.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ignoring Your Vehicle\u2019s Curves.<\/strong>&nbsp;See the vehicle, not the \u201ctype\u201d of vehicle you\u2019re wrapping. Look at your specific set of wheels and have exact measurements before you get busy designing.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Poor Quality Images.<\/strong>&nbsp;Pixelated, blown-out images won\u2019t project a professional image of your company, so be sure you have original, high-quality image files for any photos you intend to incorporate in the design.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Designing for Park.<\/strong>&nbsp;Most of the time, your vehicle will be on the move, so make sure the design works while in motion. Consider how the design will look at 25, 40, and 70 miles per hour.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_5e8cd5-4f\">Basic Principles of Wrap Designs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, there are four design principles you want to remember when designing a wrap.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Placement.<\/strong>&nbsp;Be strategic about where words and images are on the wrap. Consider how they\u2019ll mesh with the vehicle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Simplicity. <\/strong>You don\u2019t need to use every element in the design toolbox to make your wrap stand out. Incorporate one or two special elements in your wrap design, but otherwise, lean into simplicity.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Memorable.<\/strong>&nbsp;If you\u2019re investing in a wrap, guarantee a return by designing something unique that reflects your brand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Contact Information.<\/strong>&nbsp;Don\u2019t leave people guessing \u2013 include a telephone number, website, or email address, so they contact your company.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_787556-e1, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_787556-e1[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_787556-e1\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_787556-e1 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_787556-e1[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_787556-e1\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading_787556-e1 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_787556-e1\">Let Lettering Express Create the Design of Your Dreams<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As vinyl wrapping increases in popularity and trends evolve, the experienced, professional, and fun team at Lettering Express is ready to help you create designs with drivers in mind.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lettering Express has decades of experience designing and installing <a href=\"\/vehicle-wraps\">custom vehicle wraps<\/a> and is ready to brainstorm with you about a design that will meet your business goals.
