Put Your Brand on the Road
Built for the outside of a moving vehicle, a car decal grips a bumper, window, hood, or panel and rides along through sun, rain, and the car wash on durable vinyl. Badge a work truck, run a race number on a door, or turn a rear window into a rolling billboard, and your name goes where thousands of people see it every day. A set of 25 starts at $93.37 and holds a flawless 5.0 out of 5. Our presses have been running since 1999.
These decals earn their keep. They cost far less than paint or a full wrap, they go on in minutes, and the vinyl is made to last on a vehicle. Want to see how car decals sit next to the rest of the range? Browse every option on decals printing, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.
The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 25 starts at $93.37, about $3.73 a decal, and the per-decal cost keeps sliding as the count climbs, so a fleet order or a giveaway box costs far less per decal than a small test batch.

What Is a Car Decal?
A car decal is a die-cut vinyl graphic made to stick to a vehicle: a bumper, window, hood, or panel. At 4OVER4 car decals print full color on the front in 16 sizes from 2" x 2" up to 11" x 11", on 6 materials that include permanent white vinyl, repositionable white vinyl, and clear vinyl, with the size, material, and cut shape all set in the live configurator.
A car decal is a sticker built to live outside, on a moving surface. Instead of the paper stickers you peel and toss, a car decal prints on durable vinyl that grips a bumper or window and rides along through weather and the car wash. Put your logo on the tailgate, a QR code on a side window, a race number on the door, or a fleet mark on every van. You set the size, choose the vinyl, pick a cut shape, and the price updates live as you go. Need a decal for a different surface? The Window Decals and Boat Decals run on the same press.
Custom Vehicle Graphics for Cars, Trucks and Fleets
The same printed vinyl that makes one decal makes a full set of vehicle graphics. Where you place it decides what it has to do, so pick the spot first and size the artwork to it.
- Door logos. The one panel people read while a truck is parked. Keep the business name large, the phone number or web address under it, and leave the door handle and any body crease out of the artwork.
- Rear window graphics. Read by the driver stopped behind you, so this is the spot for the offer or the number. Clear vinyl keeps the glass looking clean around the design.
- Tailgate lettering. A wide, short shape suits it. Set the type heavy enough to read from a driveway rather than filling the panel with detail.
- Van side panels. The largest flat area on the vehicle, and the one place a full illustration or photo has room to work.
- Bumper and hood badges. Small permanent pieces, usually a logo or a race number, that stay on for the life of the vehicle.
Fleets are ordered differently from single vehicles. Print every vehicle in one run so the color matches sheet to sheet, hold the door logo at a single size across all of them so nothing looks rebadged later, and add a few spare sets to the order for the trucks that get replaced mid year. If the vans are one color and the pickups another, order the artwork on both permanent white vinyl and clear vinyl and use whichever disappears into each paint job.
What Size Should a Car Decal Be?
4OVER4 car decals come in 16 sizes, from a small 2" x 2" up through 11" x 11", with 2" x 3.5", 3" x 3", and 4" x 4" among the presets. The default is 2" x 2", and you can order a custom size up to 11" x 11" made to your spec.
Size is the first call, and it comes down to where the decal goes. A 2" x 2" is right for a window-corner logo or a small badge on the glass. Step up to 3" x 3" or 4" x 4" for a door or bumper mark that reads from across a lot. Go to the larger sizes, up to 11" x 11", when you want a hood graphic, a tailgate logo, or a panel carrying a phone number people can read while you are parked. All 16 sizes, the material list, and the cut options are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it.
You do not need a design background to make a car decal look sharp. Start from one of thousands of free, professionally built layouts in our sticker and label design templates, then change the colors, copy, and logo in the online editor in minutes. Already have your artwork? Skip the editor and download a press-ready blank decal template instead, built at the real trim size with the 1/8" bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design never crowds the cut.
Wally sticks your brand to the road
Why a $93.37 run of vinyl car decals rides along everywhere you drive.
A set of 25 car decals starts at $93.37, printed full color on durable vinyl that grips a bumper, window, or panel. Pick from 16 sizes up to 11 by 11 inch, choose permanent or repositionable vinyl, and add a custom die-cut shape. Wally prints them fast, with rush speeds down to next day.
What Material Should You Pick?
4OVER4 prints car decals on 6 materials: permanent white vinyl, repositionable white vinyl, clear vinyl with permanent adhesive, plus uncoated, semi-gloss, and hi-gloss label stock. Permanent vinyl bonds for the long haul, repositionable vinyl lifts and moves without residue, and clear vinyl lets the surface behind the ink show through.
For a car, the material is what makes the decal last. Permanent white vinyl is the workhorse: a solid white base that makes color pop and an adhesive that stays put on a bumper or panel. Repositionable white vinyl uses the same durable face with a lighter tack, so you can lift and reset it or peel it clean when a season or a promo ends. Clear vinyl drops the white base so the paint or glass shows through around your art, which reads great on a window. If you want a paper-style sticker sheen instead, the uncoated, semi-gloss, and hi-gloss label stocks are there too. Every option prints full color on the front, the side that faces out.
Think about where the decal spends its week. Permanent white vinyl is the one to pick for a panel that goes through an automatic wash, because the adhesive keeps its grip while brushes and high pressure jets pass over the edge, and the print sits under a coated face rather than on bare stock. Repositionable white vinyl trades some of that grip for the ability to lift and reset the piece, which suits a seasonal offer or a leased vehicle that has to go back clean. Clear vinyl leaves no white border on glass, so the design reads as if it were applied straight to the window.
Sun is what ages a decal, not rain. Colors on the roof, hood and tailgate take the most direct UV because those panels face the sky all day, and a vertical door panel holds its color longer for the same reason. A gloss face sheds water and dirt and stays easier to wipe clean; the uncoated, semi-gloss and hi-gloss label stocks are meant for indoor and short run use rather than a season parked outside.
Curved panels need one more decision. Vinyl will follow the gentle sweep of a door, a fender or a tailgate if you work from the center out and push the air toward the nearest edge, but it will not lie flat across a deep body crease or a sharp corner. Split the artwork so nothing important crosses a crease, keep the piece inside a single panel wherever you can, and choose the smaller of two candidate sizes when the surface bends in two directions at once.
How Much Do Car Decals Cost?
Car decals start at $93.37 per set of 25, about $3.73 a decal, and the per-decal price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 100,000, so a cheap car decal really comes down to how big a run you order. A run of 700 lands near 24 cents each, and 6,000 near 11 cents. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-decal cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
What Shape and Finish Can a Car Decal Have?
Every 4OVER4 car decal prints full color on the front with 4/0 ink, and you choose the cut: straight corners, 1/8" rounded corners, or a custom die-cut shape that follows your artwork. Stickers can also be kiss-cut on sheets, and each run ships with a standard finish.
The cut is what turns a square of vinyl into a decal that looks made for the car. Straight corners keep it simple and cheap. A 1/8" rounded corner softens the edges so they resist peeling and catching. A custom die-cut shape follows the outline of your logo or design, so the decal reads as your mark and not a rectangle around it, which is the look most vehicle graphics go for. Color prints full CMYK on the front, and the run ships with a standard finish. Want the shape to be the whole point? The Die-Cut Decals are built around a contour cut.
Die Cut, Kiss Cut and Transfer Decals Compared
Three cuts, three different things to hand an installer. The vinyl underneath is the same, so the choice is about how the piece is applied and what is left on the vehicle afterwards.
| Type | How it is cut | How it is applied | What it ships on | Durability | Best use |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Die cut | Cut clean through the vinyl and the backing, so the piece leaves the press already in its final shape | Peel the whole decal off its backing and set it down in one go | Its own backing sheet, trimmed to the shape | Full outdoor life of the vinyl, with the cut edge sealed by the laminate or coating on top | A single logo, shield or race number on a door, hood or bumper |
| Kiss cut | Cut through the vinyl only, leaving the backing sheet whole underneath | Lift the shape off the sheet with a fingernail and press it down | One flat sheet that can carry several decals at once | Same vinyl life once applied, and the intact backing protects the pieces in a box or a glovebox | Handouts, giveaway packs and multiples of a small badge in one order |
| Transfer | Cut and weeded so only the letters or the logo shapes remain, with no background around them | Tape the whole piece to the glass, squeegee it down, then pull the top tape away and leave the artwork behind | A backing sheet with transfer tape over the face holding the pieces in position | Nothing but the artwork sits on the glass, so there is no film edge for a wash brush to catch | Phone numbers, hours, multi word lettering and any design that must look painted on |
On this product you choose straight corners, 1/8" rounded corners, or a custom die-cut shape drawn to your own outline, so a die cut piece can follow a logo exactly rather than sitting inside a rectangle.
How Do Car Decals Compare to the Rest of the Range?
Car decals are one pick in a family of vehicle and vinyl graphics, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a broader Automotive Decal, a heavier-duty Vinyl Decal, or a contour-cut Die-Cut Decal, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up car decals against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

How Fast Can You Get Car Decals?
Car decals print on a 5 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 4-day, 3-day, 2-day, or Next-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set amount on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Whichever speed you pick, 99.8% of 4OVER4 orders land on time and 82% ship early, so the date on the calendar is the date you plan around.
See the Rest of Our Decals
Car decals are one stop in a much larger lineup, and you can scan the full print product range any time. If a broader automotive graphic, a window decal, or a heavier vinyl would serve you better, the rest of the family is one tap away on decals printing. Each option shows its own starting price and links straight to its product page, so finding the right fit takes seconds.
