Painting Your Golf Cart

Painting has been the traditional method of changing a vehicle’s color and adding custom designs.

Pros:

• Durability: A good quality paint job can last many years when properly maintained.
• Finish Options: You can choose from matte, glossy, metallic, and more.
• Comprehensive Coverage: Every nook and cranny can be painted for a completely new look.
• Resale Value: A professional paint job can potentially increase the resale value.

Cons:

• Cost: A professional paint job can be expensive.
• Time-Consuming: Requires more downtime as the cart needs to dry and cure.
• Irreversible: Once painted, going back to the original color is a complex process.
• Potential for Chipping: Over time, paint can chip or wear off, requiring touch-ups.
• Average Cost: Depending on the complexity and quality, painting your Golf Cart can range from $500 to $2,000+.

No matter which option you choose, Painting or Wrapping your EV Cart adds personal style and value to your ride!

Wrapping Your Golf Cart

A newer and more versatile approach, wrapping uses vinyl sheets to cover the original paint.

Pros:

• Versatility: Vinyl wraps come in an array of designs, colors, and finishes.
• Protection: Wraps protect the original paint from UV rays, scratches, and minor dents.
• Reversible: Easy to remove without damaging the original paint.
• Quick Application: Less downtime compared to painting.

Cons:

• Durability Concerns: Some wraps may peel or fade faster than paint, especially in harsh climates.
• Complexity: Wrapping requires skill, especially around complex curves and edges.
• Limited Coverage: Some intricate areas might be hard to wrap completely.
• Cost: While sometimes cheaper than painting, high-quality wraps can be expensive.
• Average Cost: Depending on design and quality, wrapping your Golf Cart typically ranges from $300 to $1,500.
