Dub Custom Cars Limited, a vehicle customisation and repair specialist based in Essex, has plunged into liquidation, dealing another significant blow to the UK car industry. The company appointed liquidators on June 30, 2026, with the notice published in the London Gazette on July 3, 2026.
Liquidators Appointed
According to the London Gazette, Martin Weller and Glyn Mummery of FRP Advisory Trading Limited have been appointed as the company's liquidators. Their role involves taking control of the business and selling off its assets. The full impact on jobs remains unclear at this early stage. Companies House records show the business was incorporated in October 2014.
Company Background and Services
Trading as Dub Customs, the company described itself as being involved in "creating automotive artistry" through high-quality craftsmanship. It claimed to be "firmly established as one of the UK's leading vehicle customisers," with an experienced team ensuring that "possibilities are endless."
Dub Customs specialised in bodywork refinishing, paint protection film, machine polishing, paint correction, ceramic coatings, and interior fabric protections. Its core expertise lay in vinyl wrap application, which the company described as "the foundation of our skills." The firm used class-leading vinyls with warranties starting from five years. Beyond appearance upgrades, the company also offered performance enhancements including switchable exhaust systems, custom engine upgrades, and aerodynamic improvements.
Clientele and Market Position
Images from the company's website showed that Dub Customs had worked on a range of high-end supercars, including Aston Martins, Porsches, and Maseratis. The business claimed that through their engineering insight, it was possible to fit any performance or cosmetic upgrade. Express.co.uk has contacted Dub Customs for comment.
