Installation
A bus wrap is a specialized type of custom graphic made up of several sections of durable vinyl decals that adhere to the bus exterior. It is designed to maximize advertising efforts for your transportation services by functioning as a roving mobile billboard. Bus wraps familiarize both pedestrians and drivers with your brand — including your unique logo, proprietary colors and other graphics associated with your business.
A partial bus wrap will normally cover between 25% and 75% of your vehicle, while a full wrap covers 100% of your vehicle. To “step it up a notch”, Pixel Wraps also offers full coverage wraps that decorate all four sides of the bus and can even include as much of your vehicle roof as federal transportation regulation will allow.
Both full and partial wraps are made from premium polyvinyl chloride — otherwise known as PVC or cast vinyl — from industry standard producers such as 3M and Avery. Our bus wraps also include a special UV protection barrier that is guaranteed to prevent fading from sun exposure.
Coverage Options
$3,000
starting price
A full bus wrap covers both sides, rear, front-facing panels, and service access doors integrated into the design. For charter coaches, shuttles, and party buses, perforated window graphics can be added to create one continuous advertising surface across the entire vehicle.
$1,500
starting price
A partial bus wrap focuses on the highest-visibility areas of the vehicle, typically the driver-side wall and rear panel. It delivers strong brand exposure while reducing material and installation costs compared to a full wrap.

Perforated window film transforms passenger windows into advertising space while maintaining visibility from the inside. The printed graphics appear solid from the exterior while riders can still see out through the perforated material.
Buses We Wrap
40-foot and 60-foot articulated transit buses from Gillig, New Flyer, NABI, and Nova — the workhorses of NJ Transit, NYC MTA, and Port Authority routes. Transit buses are typically wrapped for paid ad campaigns rather than operator branding, and the wrap needs to integrate with route numbering, fare signage, and accessibility markings. We work directly with transit advertising agencies (Outfront, Intersection, Vector Media) on campaign rollouts as well as with private transit operators on full-vehicle livery.
Type C and Type D school buses from Blue Bird, Thomas Built, and IC Bus. Most school bus wrap work falls into one of three buckets: private school district livery (replacing yellow with the district's brand), private operator wraps (church, charter school, summer camp), and 'skoolie' conversions where a retired school bus is being rebuilt as an RV or mobile business. Each requires different vinyl coverage, emergency exit visibility, and stop-arm/flasher integration.
45-foot Prevost H3-45, MCI J4500, Van Hool CX45, and Setra coaches used by charter, tour, casino shuttle, and corporate transportation operators. Coach wraps are usually full-livery branding for the operator, often paired with one-way vision perforated film over every passenger window. The wrap finish has to read as premium — chrome accents, metallic vinyl callouts, photographic imagery — because the buses serve a customer-facing market that judges the brand by the equipment.
Cutaway shuttles and Ford Transit / Mercedes Sprinter passenger conversions used as hotel shuttles, airport shuttles, casino shuttles, university shuttles, and church / charter group vehicles. Mini-bus wraps are the fastest in our shop (2–3 days), the most affordable per unit, and a common entry point for hospitality brands building a fleet.
Custom party and limo buses — typically built on a Freightliner S2 or International chassis with a heavily modified passenger compartment. Party bus wraps tend to be heavy on chrome, metallic, color-shift, and image-driven design. We've wrapped wedding, prom, sports team, and bachelor/bachelorette specialty buses for NYC and NJ event operators.
Cutaway shuttles built on Ford E-Series, Chevy 4500, and Freightliner Sprinter chassis, often configured for 18–32 passengers with a luggage rack. Airport shuttle wraps need to handle high daily mileage, frequent washing, and graphic clarity from across a busy terminal lane. We work to property brand guidelines and coordinate around the shuttle's overnight off-shift window.
Pixel Wraps started in 2001, before vehicle wraps were a category. We've wrapped buses for transit advertising agencies, school districts, charter operators, and event companies across multiple equipment generations — Gillig Phantoms to New Flyer Xceliors, MCI MC-9s to J4500s.
We handle 3M IJ8624 perforated vinyl and Contra Vision in-house — printing, lamination, and install. Most local shops outsource window film, which adds days to a project and a layer of risk on color match. Ours stays under the same roof as the body wrap.
Every bus wrap we ship preserves emergency exit visibility, ADA wheelchair-access markings, and any operator-specific accessibility branding. We template every wrap against the unit's emergency egress points before vinyl is printed.
Most buses can't sit idle. We schedule installs around your route or charter calendar — weekends, off-season blocks, and staged fleet rotations. For multi-bus rebrands we'll stage one bus at a time so the rest of the fleet stays in revenue service.
We've worked to NJ Transit and MTA-spec advertising standards, school district livery guidelines, and the production specs major transit ad agencies (Outfront, Intersection, Vector Media, Lamar) require. We know what their print, install, and sign-off processes look like.
Everything happens at one 10,000 sq ft facility in Linden, NJ. No outsourced panels, no shipped vinyl. That matters most when you're rebranding multiple buses and the eighth coach has to color-match the first.
