Price by film type
Installed full-wrap estimate for a compact like the Seagull. As of July 2026; verify with your installer.
| Film type | Installed range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Gloss | $2,500–$3,800 | The baseline — solid gloss colors. |
| Satin | $2,500–$3,800 | Same price as gloss; different sheen. |
| Matte | $2,650–$4,000 | Slightly more; care is stricter. |
| Metallic / pearl | $2,800–$4,250 | Flake and pearl films cost a touch more. |
| Color-shift flip | $3,500–$5,300 | Premium film, harder install. |
| Chrome | $4,000–$6,100 | Most expensive — delicate, slow to lay. |
Vinyl needed for a BYD Seagull
About 255 sq ft of film (23.5 m²) for a full wrap. Order 56 ft of 60-inch roll (19 yd, 17.5 m of 1.52 m roll): one standard 75 ft roll.
| Job | Film area | Order |
|---|---|---|
| Full wrap, gloss / satin / matte | 230–280 sq ft | 56 ft |
| Full wrap, metallic / color-shift / carbon | 250–305 sq ft | 62 ft |
| Full wrap, chrome | 295–360 sq ft | 73 ft |
| Full wrap with door jambs | 260–320 sq ft | 64 ft |
| Hood only | 25–31 sq ft | 7 ft |
| Mirror caps (pair) | 9–11 sq ft | 3 ft |
Order = feet of 60-inch roll. Built from the Seagull's size (3,780 × 1,715 × 1,540 mm), ±10%. The order is the top of the range, so all the film comes from one batch. Work it out for your job in the wrap calculator.
What moves the price
- Car size & complexity. More panels, mirrors, spoilers and deep recesses mean more film and hours. The Seagull is a compact.
- Film type. Gloss and satin are baseline; matte, metallic, flip and chrome climb from there.
- Surface prep. Clay, decontamination and fixing chips take time before a single panel is wrapped.
- Old-wrap removal. Stripping a previous wrap (and cleaning adhesive) is billable labor on top.
- Coverage. Full vs partial, plus roof, trim and door jambs — each choice moves the total.

Cost questions, answered
How much is it to wrap a BYD Seagull?
$2,500–$3,800 for a full wrap installed, depending on film and prep. Gloss/satin are baseline; matte a little more; metallics, flips and chrome carry a premium.
Why is chrome or flip so much more?
Those films cost more per roll and are far harder to install cleanly — more time, more waste, more skill. Expect a 30–60% premium over a gloss color on the same car.
Is a partial wrap on a Seagull cheaper?
Yes — roof, hood or accent wraps are a fraction of a full wrap. Partials can be trickier to color-match to existing panels, so factor that in.
What makes the price go up?
Car size and complexity, film type, surface prep, removing an old wrap, and how much coverage you want (roof, trim, door jambs).
