- An Australian wrap shop showed a Lamborghini tradie rig for April Fools’ Day.
- Tradie Wraps usually handles mid-size pickups, so this build feels left field.
- The Instagram photos fooled plenty of viewers before the joke became clear.
Tradespeople tend to favor durability over drama, sticking with pickups and vans that can take a beating without complaint. That usually means familiar names like Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota, and Nissan. High-end Italian exotics rarely make the shortlist for job site duty. Until someone decided to make a joke with the idea.
On April 1, Australian company Tradie Wraps, which specializes in promotional wraps for tradesmen’s vehicles, took to Instagram to share images of its most ambitious project yet. Typically working on mid-size pickups, the company posted photos of a pair of Lamborghini Urus models outfitted for an electrician or a plumber, and clearly not intended for the school run.

Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your tolerance for sacrilege, Tradie Wraps never laid a hand on a real Lamborghini. The whole thing was an April Fools’ stunt, as Road&Track reports. Even so, the execution is convincing enough to make you wonder. In another timeline, the Urus might just pass as the most excessive work vehicle ever conceived.
Will Someone Make This Urus A Reality?
The pair of Raging Bulls can be seen rocking custom steel front bumpers and are sitting on black aftermarket wheels with huge mud-terrain tires. To accommodate these new wheels, the ride height has been jacked up. The rear half of the body has then been cut just behind the driver and passenger seats, morphing the Urus from a four-door into a two-door.
Found where the rear seats wouldn’t ordinarily be is a large steel or aluminum storage canopy, perfect for housing tools and other items. In the post, Tradie Wraps suggested that it worked directly with Lamborghini Australia on the project, but of course, there’s no way Lamborghini itself would sacrifice two Uruses to be cut up and modified like this.
