Get Your Ride Looking Sharp with Custom Automotive Graphics

Why beef up your ride with custom Graphics?

Car enthusiasts love their cars. Their beloved vehicles become an extension of them and help to show off their personality. They are always looking for ways to make their cars better show off their own personal style. Some love bold and brash while others want to focus and little accents that make their ride truly unique. Regardless of their personal style, custom graphics is one of the best ways to personalize a car. For example, a Mustang owner can go to the extreme with bold Boss-style stripes that can include covering the hood and sides. If they want the subtle accents that add style, there are options like the pony symbol and signature mustang logo. Each of these can be added to areas such as the dash, headrest, or trunk deck to create a great looking custom look. There are also subtle exterior enhancements like back lid blackout or honeycomb taillight decals. Whatever the style, custom automotive graphics can create a stylish look that is perfect for anyone.

Do automotive graphics hurt resale value?

Before answering this question, there is a difference between simple decals and graphics that needs to be established. Simple decals are basic stickers that use cheap glue to stick to whatever surface they are put on. Custom automotive graphics (which can also include high-end stickers and decals), like the licensed Ford Mustang graphics available from Rocky Mountain Graphics, use an adhesive that is much stronger and are designed to be put on a vehicle and easily removed if needed. The cheap, common stickers can hurt resale value more for the damage they can do rather than for their appearance. When the stickers are applied to anywhere with paint, the glue will bond to the paint, especially on non-metal areas like the bumpers. High-quality graphics and stickers will hold up much better and are easier to remove without damaging the car. As a result, the car will retain its resale value much better.

How long will custom graphics last?

This will vary greatly based on a number of circumstances. If high-quality graphics are used on a car that is kept in a garage and rarely used in bad weather, they will likely last for decades. If the car is driven daily, it will depend on the climate and conditions that the vehicle is being driven in. How the graphic was installed is also vital in determining how long it will last. A good quality graphic that is installed properly on a regularly driven car should last at least five years and in many cases will last as long as ten years.
