Whether it’s a police, sheriff, or security vehicle, the law enforcement vehicle graphics displayed on your fleet serve a number of important purposes. Beyond creating a cohesive look across your fleet, these graphics display important information and also play a role in public safety.
6 Kinds of Law Enforcement Vehicle Graphics
Today, we’re going to talk more about the different types of law enforcement vehicle graphics, their purpose, and the options you have to choose from when it comes to your own fleet.
Police Chevrons
Chevron designs on police vehicles not only help identify these vehicles to the public, but they also play an important role in keeping officers safe. Chevron bumpers make vehicles more visible which can help give other drivers adequate time to get out of the way or pass safely. Essentially, police chevrons are key for vehicle visibility!
When it comes to the options for your own fleet, GDI Graphics offers several chevron law enforcement vehicle graphics to choose from, including:
- TYPE 1: 6 INCH SINGLE COLOR. Available in: BLACK, RED, YELLOW AND WHITE REFLECTIVE.
- TYPE 2: 6 INCH DOUBLE COLOR. Available in: BLACK, RED, YELLOW AND WHITE REFLECTIVE.
- TYPE 3: 3 INCH DOUBLE COLOR. Available in: BLACK, RED, YELLOW AND WHITE REFLECTIVE.
- TYPE 4: 3 INCH DOUBLE COLOR SEPARATED. Available in: BLACK, RED, YELLOW AND WHITE REFLECTIVE.

Ghost Law Enforcement Vehicle Graphics
Sometimes, visibility isn’t the goal when it comes to law enforcement vehicle graphics. In some cases, departments want to make their graphics as subtle as possible so their fleet can serve as ghost vehicles.
In this case, there are still plenty of options when it comes to different types of law enforcement vehicle graphics. For starters, we can help you choose graphics that will be virtually invisible during daylight. But when it comes to nighttime visibility, these same decals can also be reflective enough to make sure your vehicles and your officers are safe from oncoming traffic.
In this post, we cover why police ghost vehicle graphics are becoming so popular.
Custom Door Decals
Custom door decals are one of the most common types of law enforcement vehicle graphics! With a single photo, your fleet can have your badge proudly displayed on every door.
You have a number of options to choose from in addition to badges, including shields and patches.
For creating these decals, we have a number of different production types to choose from to suit your needs. Without being limited to a single production type, you can mix and match to meet your needs!
Here are three options and their benefits to help you choose between them.
- Digital printing: Most flexible, create stunning original graphics, UV protectant applied for longer life. Choose from a wide selection of colors, as well as pigmented or nonpigmented reflective and non-reflective vinyls.
- Cut and layered vinyl: Long active life, roll goods for easy repairs. These can help you stretch your budget as far as possible because of their long-lasting nature.
- Screen printed: Longevity, cost-effective when purchased in larger quantities. This is ideal if you have a large fleet in need of decals or if your vehicles need several decals each.
Vehicle Wraps
Vehicle wraps are another popular choice for many fleets. You can choose from partial or full vehicle wraps, but the right choice for your fleet depends on factors. For example, a full vehicle wrap is more suited to larger vehicles with more flat, smooth surface area. On smaller vehicles with more intricacies, a full vehicle wrap isn’t necessarily the best choice. Instead, partial vehicle wraps can be strategically placed around the vehicle in the places that will work best.
In addition to displaying important information and creating a cohesive look, vehicle wraps also serve other important purposes. For example, did you know they can actually protect your vehicles from a variety of damage? Things like UV damage, dings, and etc, can all be prevented with the added layer of protection from vehicle wrapping.
