Custom phone cases for car lovers and enthusiasts
If your phone case should look like it belongs in your garage, not a generic catalog, the custom case designer gives you everything a car enthusiast needs: your own car photo, your car's badge or logo, and your license plate printed as text — all on one case.
Upload a photo of your own car
Start with a clear photo of your car — a driveway shot, a track day photo, or even a phone snap works if it's reasonably sharp. Upload it in the custom case designer, then drag and zoom until the crop looks right around the camera cutout. This is the same UV-print, soft TPU snap case used across the whole catalog, just built around your car instead of a stock design.
For best results, use a photo at roughly 300 DPI and avoid heavily compressed screenshots — see the artwork and DPI guide linked below if you're not sure your file will print sharp.
Add your car's logo or badge
Have a clean photo or graphic of your car's manufacturer badge — BMW roundel, Audi rings, a JDM sticker, whatever represents your build? Upload that as a second design, or work it into the same image before uploading, the same way you'd add any logo or graphic to a custom case. Just make sure you have the rights to use the logo image you upload.
Print your license plate as text
This is the detail that makes a car case feel personal: the designer's text tool isn't limited to names or captions — add your license plate number the same way, with your choice of font and color, positioned wherever it reads best against your car photo. It's the same text feature already built into the designer, just put to a car-specific use.
A few of our newer ready-made designs (Audi, Minnie, and Stitch Custom cases) also ship with a nameplate placeholder built into the artwork — if you order one of those, add the exact text you want in the order note at checkout instead.
Or start from a ready-made car design
Not every car case needs to start from scratch. Case Finds already has a Motor Sports collection — BMW, Audi, American muscle, JDM, and more — that you can order as-is, or use as a base and upload your own photo instead. Browse a few below.
What to check before you order
Confirm your exact phone model so camera and port cutouts match. Preview the mockup after you place the photo and plate text — small shifts matter once the UV print is cured on soft TPU. If the photo looks soft on screen at full zoom, it will look soft in print; swap for a sharper source rather than stretching a small file.
Eligible custom orders include free worldwide shipping and usually dispatch the same or next business day after payment. For wear expectations on printed cases, see how long printed phone cases last.
