Whether you’re designing your first sign or looking to expand your collection, this comprehensive guide will help you choose the perfect accessory for your ride.


What Are Personalised Car Signs?

Personalised car signs are custom-made signs designed to display a message, name, design, or graphic on your vehicle. They allow drivers to add flair, personality, and meaning to their car without committed modifications or expensive custom bodywork.

Made using high-quality, weather-resistant materials and printed with professional-grade techniques, these signs attach to the inside of your vehicle using secure suction cups — meaning they can be easily removed, repositioned, or replaced at any time.

What Can You Display on a Personalised Car Sign?

Anything! You can customise your sign to display:

  • Your name or your child’s name
  • A favourite quote or motivational message
  • Humorous sayings
  • Safety notices (e.g., “Baby on Board”)
  • Seasonal messages like “Merry Christmas!”
  • Business branding
  • Support for your favourite sports team
  • Special causes or awareness statements

The possibilities are endless, and with the help of the Spotted Lizard Prints design team, you can tailor the sign to your exact preferences.


How Do Personalised Car Signs Work?

At Spotted Lizard Prints, the process of designing and using a personalised car sign is simple, fun, and highly customisable.

1. Choose Your Style & Personalisation Options

You can select from a wide range of:

  • Colours
  • Sizes
  • Shapes
  • Fonts
  • Themes
  • Icons and illustrations

This means you can match the design to your car, your personality, or the message you want to convey. Whether you prefer something bold and colourful or clean and minimalist, you’ll find the perfect starting point.

2. Professional Printing on Premium Materials

Once your design is finalised, it is printed on high-quality aluminium — a material chosen for its strength, durability, and resistance to weather conditions. Unlike stickers that fade, peel, or damage your car’s surfaces, aluminium signs are:

  • Waterproof
  • UV-resistant
  • Long-lasting
  • Easy to clean

3. Diamond Shaped Design for Maximum Visibility

Spotted Lizard Prints’ personalised car signs are crafted in a visually appealing diamond shape (150mm × 150mm). This shape mimics the iconic “Baby on Board” style but offers far more creative freedom.

4. Easy Hanging with Secure Suction Cups

Every sign includes two suction cups — one at the top and one at the bottom — allowing you to securely attach it to your vehicle’s window. These suction cups:

  • Provide strong grip
  • Prevent wobbling
  • Hold the sign in place during travel
  • Allow with easy removal whenever needed

No tools, adhesives, or installation skills required.

5. High-Gloss Finish That Makes Designs Pop

The high-gloss finish gives every sign a professional shine, helping the colours appear richer and the design stand out clearly. This ensures excellent visibility both up close and at a distance.


Spotlight: “Santa Please Stop Here” Personalised Car Signs

One of the most popular and delightful variations in the personalised car sign range is the Santa Please Stop Here” sign — a magical must-have for children during the festive season.

Why Families Love Them

  • Build excitement in the lead-up to Christmas
  • Make car rides extra festive
  • Add holiday spirit to your vehicle décor

Top Features of the Santa Sign

  • Personalised with a child’s name
  • Vibrant colours and holiday graphics
  • Diamond shape (150mm × 150mm)
  • High-gloss finish for added shine
  • Two suction cups for easy mounting

These signs also make fantastic Christmas gifts, especially for young children, families, or even teachers looking for festive classroom décor.


Benefits of Personalised Car Signs

Personalised car signs are more than just decorative—they come with practical advantages, creative flexibility, and durability. Here’s why so many people love using them.

1. Add Personality to Your Vehicle

Your car is an extension of yourself. Instead of blending into the sea of vehicles on the road, a personalised sign helps yours stand out with style, humour, or sentiment.

2. Promote Your Business or Services

For entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small business owners, car signs can act as mini billboards. You can display:

  • Your business name
  • Contact information

Personalised car signs can be:

  • Swapped out seasonally
  • Updated with new names or designs
  • Used on multiple vehicles
  • Taken down when not needed

This flexibility is ideal for both everyday use and special occasions.

Compared to custom paint jobs or car decals, personalised car signs are far more affordable and much easier to personalise to your heart’s content.

Because they are made from premium aluminium, these signs withstand:

  • Rain

Your design stays bright and intact for years.
