7 of the Best Places Offering Car Decals in Winnipeg
Did you know that the first car bumper stickers were used as promotions for tourist attractions back in the 1940s?
While many decals are still used for promotional purposes, you can have your favourite movie and TV characters, fandoms, and personal artwork made into car decals. It’s a great way to show off your personality and customise your ride.
Just for you, we reviewed the best places in Winnipeg that offer customised car decals.
How much does it cost to get car decals made and attached?
The price of car decals depends on their design complexity and size. Prices for mass-produced car decals also differ from custom-made ones.
For example, some pre-made car decals you can get from notable online stores can cost around $8 up to $30, minus taxes and delivery fees.
On the other hand, custom-made car decals can cost around $13 up to $58 per square foot, although this price range may still change.
You’ll also have to consider other factors such as installation services, which can cost around $5.11 per square foot, and workers’ fees which can amount to around $255 up to $1,300 per installer.
How did we find the best places that offer car decals in Winnipeg?
In reviewing the best places that offer car decals in Winnipeg, we considered these factors:
1. Wraptors Decals

Wraptors Decals has been in the vinyl and graphics industry for over 80 years. It has honed its skills in designing and installing wraps for cars, SUVs, trucks, and commercial fleets.
We explored its portfolio and found that most of its previous projects feature vinyl wraps for food trucks, emergency vehicles, and service fleets. We’re also stunned that it does wraps and decals for speed boats and buses!
The majority of the previous projects required full and partial wraps, although you may hire the same services to have your desired concept translated into die-cut vinyl decals.
Just contact Wraptors Decals and submit your design brief. They’ll do the designing for you, or perhaps tweak any drawing you’ve provided.
A slight downside we’ve received though is that sometimes it can be difficult to reach them for an update regarding your order.
On a brighter note, clients have told us that they’re impressed by the premium quality of Wraptors’ vehicle decals. This tells us that the wait must be worth it!
That said, we still think the staff should be more responsive to clients’ queries to avoid making them anxious about the money they’ve shelled out.
Pros
- Does small and large vehicle decals
- Strong portfolio
Cons
- Some issues with responsiveness
- Currently no option for quotes/estimations
Customer Reviews
Quality decals made by excellent designers and installers
“Wraptors Decals has been doing our company decals for many years. Find Vivian and her team to be nothing but professional. The design and wraps they have done for us are outstanding. The cost is fair and it’s done when they say it will be. Can’t ask for any more than that.” – Don McCormick
The only vehicle decal installer we trust
“We ONLY use Wraptors Decals for all of our business trucks and trailers. They are always very professional and helpful from their design process until the final touches are done! Their prices are very reasonable and their staff are all very friendly and they always go above and beyond!” – 547 Renovations

Auto Stripe is another noteworthy graphics design company that has been around since the 80s. A look into its portfolio on Instagram will reveal some of its previous works for private cars, commercial fleets, and motorcycles – they even do company signages.
Perhaps what sets Auto Stripe apart from other car decal designers and installer is that it specialises in smaller and more precise designs that are minimal, but still add aesthetics to your vehicle.
Some of the designs you may go for are symbols of your lifestyle, quotes from your favorite author, an illustration of your pet, or representations of your aspirations in life.
That said, this vinyl installer’s services are a more creative and personal alternative to getting pre-made decals from online stores that may be cheaper, but have mediocre quality.
Additionally, your customised decal will make it easier to spot your car, especially when you have a hard time locating it in a jam-packed parking space.
Perhaps an area we think Auto Stripes should improve on is its communication skills with customers.
Some clients have spoken out regarding miscommunication in relation to the design process. For example, some mentioned getting decals with the initial designs instead of the final artwork.
And although the miscommunication was proven to be on the clients’ part, we appreciate Auto Stripe for going the extra mile in redoing the decals and delivering the ones with the correct and final design.
We also think that Auto Stripe should seriously consider putting up its own website so that they can provide more detailed information about their decal and graphic design services.
Pros
- Great for smaller and more precise designs
- Also services motorcycles, boats, and trucks
Cons
- Does not have a main website as of the moment
- Instances of miscommunication
Customer Reviews
Love my hood decals so much
“They applied some hood decals on my Dodge Ram. I am so happy! The job turned out nicer than I envisioned, the staff were friendly and communication was top-notch! I will be doing business with Auto Stripe again.” – Mister Brunswick
Provides top-notch decals every time
“Excellent service all around, and a high-quality final product. There was a miscommunication on our part, and they went way beyond what was expected to help us get the job done in time. Would definitely recommend it for any custom decal work.” – McPhillipsToyota

If you’re looking for expert graphic designers to help you get your brand to better heights, then SpeedPro is the right decal designer for you.
We explored its services and portfolio and found that majority of its works are large-scale wraps and decals that make brands and slogans more visible to passersby.
You may also choose whether you want full or partial wraps, or decals for your window or bumper if you’re after something a tad smaller.
Whichever design you choose, SpeedPro has talented graphics artists and designers to help you illustrate your design better.
Just upload your design sketches via its “upload design” tab, then let them work their creative magic for you.
SpeedPro also has more than one branch in Winnipeg, which means you have two places to have your decals designed and printed!
Now, a slight drawback we found is that SpeedPro mainly focuses on marketing or advertising projects.
And from what we’ve seen on its portfolio, SpeedPro might not accommodate decals that are as small as coasters or the palm of your hand.
That said, we recommend asking the company first whether they also accommodate customised car decals for personal use.
Pros
- Provides logo and graphic design services
- Has more than one branch within Winnipeg
Cons
- Mostly commercial clients
- Might not accommodate small decal sizes
Customer Reviews
Loved the graphics they made for my bike
“I contacted SpeedPro North in Winnipeg about doing some custom graphics for my Norco Mountain bike. I was extremely impressed with the amount of time and effort Kevin and his team put into this project. The end result exceeded all of my expectations! 10/10. Communication was excellent. I was given plenty of options to make it look exactly the way I wanted it to. The artist did a fantastic job bringing it to life. The installer did a great job on the final layout. I couldn’t be happier. I would highly recommend Kevin and his team at SpeedPro North to anyone looking to do custom graphics. Thanks, Kevin, for taking on a project that other companies didn’t want to do. The bike looks amazing! All the best!” – Greg Spencer
Great place for all sorts of graphic works
“SpeedPro Winnipeg has been a trusted source/supplier for our specialty large format and pull-up banner display unit needs for years. They are committed to high quality graphic work and timely turnaround times. Their staff is very pleasant to deal with and always clear on timing, process, estimating and billing. We have shopped around and their prices are fair. Top notch business! If I could give more stars I would. We will certainly be doing more work with SpeedPro in the future and would recommend their product/services to others.” – Chris Hunter
4. FASTSIGNS

FASTSIGNS is notable for doing all sorts of graphic works for advertising. While it is often hired for signages, banners, and print materials, we learned that it’s also a suitable place to have decals and stickers made.
Upon enquiring, the company specialises in made-to-order decals for business and personal use. Those interested may even choose the materials they want for their decals, such as paper, wood, plastic, acrylic, or vinyl.
But since FASTSIGNS mostly does interior decals and designs, choosing materials other than vinyl may lead to the adhesives peeling off or fading quickly.
An alternative is to hire its designers to create inverse car decals for you to stick inside your car windows instead. That way, your custom design will still be visible but less exposed to dirt and weathering conditions.
Perhaps what makes FASTSIGNS a reliable decal designer and installer is that it accommodates bulk orders of its products. This service is great for creating freebies or new items for people’s product lines.
On the downside, rush orders are accepted but are quite expensive. Clients will have to pay an extra $100 to get their orders prioritised.
In that case, it is best to hire FASTSIGNS earlier on to avoid the hassle of rushing orders and potentially receiving the wrong designs and items.
Pros
- Offers different types of materials for decals
- Great for customising small decal designs
Cons
- Non-vinyl decals might not be great for exterior use
- Pricey rush fee
Customer Reviews
Prompt services and reasonable prices
“I had a marvelous experience with Ashley from Fast Signs. I called in to request vinyl and retractable signs for an event only a week away. They made it happen and even delivered it to my address on a Friday evening. Nothing but great things to say about my experience. Highly recommend. – Victoria Rempel
Staff offered solutions that improve businesses
“Very Professional service and high-quality product, they are not only offering products, but also offering the total solution to improve your business visibility. This will be my favorite store.” – Mark Davidson
5. Enova Automotive Specialist

Enova Automotive Specialist offers graphic design and car detailing services. We looked into its gallery and are stunned by its graphic design services including car exteriors, windows, and wheels.
We think that the array of decals suitable for different placements on cars enables customers to decorate their vehicles any way they want.
Perhaps our favourite product of Enova is its custom-made die-cute vinyl stickers. These are perfect for creating solid shapes, block letters, and minimalist designs.
Die-cut vinyl decals also look clean and precise, making them great accents that highlight your car’s appearance.
To customise your own decals, submit your concepts to Enova’s team of designers, and they’ll take care of the refining and final rendering for you.
A word of caution, though: some clients shared that some of the decals developed air bubbles after a few hours since application.
This means that small air pockets weren’t smoothed out properly and the adhesive isn’t that adherent to car surfaces.
The company will have to fine-tune its staff’s skills in applying decals and vinyl prints flawlessly. Given that tailor-made car decals can be pricey purchases, air bubbles forming may indicate sloppy work or subpar adhesive materials.
Another thing we were iffy about is that despite Enova offering redos or reapplications, they can reportedly be difficult to get ahold of.
Pros
- Does decals for various placements
- Does die-cut car decals
Cons
- Issues on subpar application
- Can be difficult to contact

Definitely would recommend to friends and family
“Got my windows tinted about 6 months ago by Modify Me. They took a little longer than I had expected but I’d rather have to wait for a good job than have them rush and do a poor job. Cuts were super clean, especially considering I’m a detailer and I notice everything. Everything has held up in 6 months so I know they used quality products. Definitely would recommend to friends and family and believe me, I have. Great work guys, keep it up.” – Nick Havixbeck
