Spray or wrap?

[Castiel]

I don't really believe it will stay the same for 10 years or even one year when exposed to sun and whether elements, which i believe will fade the color and harshen the film.

That was my concern.

As i said above if my paint gets swirls or any imperfections i can do a paint correction and its fixed. With a Wrap though would it require replacement?

Doing a little more digging into the matter and it seems my estimates of about a grand for the wrap may have been misplaced. There are places that offer it for this price but when i dig around they make no mention of the quality of their wrap. Those that use the 3M wrap and give guarantees with their work (years) are about 40%+ more expensive. Brings the cost up to a starting price of 1,400 (and up).

So if the price starts to rise to the level of a paint job i don't see the benefits of wrap over paint.

It is why I would.dip the car myself... I actually recently learned that they now also have a plastidip topcoat that is almost as resistant as a top coat.
