How auto accessories get branded

The imprint method follows the shape of the part. The Custom License Plate is molded in poly plastic at 12" W x 6" H, the same size as a standard vehicle plate, and prints by silk-screen or 4-color process digital print across the full face in up to four spot colors. Molded plastic items use smaller pad-printed areas instead. The Extra-Wide Break The Ice Scraper carries a 2.75 in x 1.75 in imprint on the top of the blade in up to two colors. Imprint areas and color limits change from style to style, so check the product page before you size artwork.

Who orders automotive promotional products

Car dealerships, service centers, insurance agencies, fleet operators and auto repair shops are the usual buyers. Dealerships hand these items to customers at vehicle delivery. Service departments use them as waiting-room giveaways. Fleet and safety managers stock scrapers and emergency kits in company vehicles.

Ordering, minimums and lead times

Order minimums, imprint areas and production times vary by style. The Custom License Plate lists standard production of 5 to 7 business days after proof approval, and the Payload Collapsible Trunk Organizer lists 2 to 4 business days. Request a quote or open the product page for the exact minimum, imprint size and current price on any item.
