Vinyl wrap - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Anyone here ever have their car wrapped in vinyl? How much, like 2K? How does it hold up to road grime, brembo dust, rock chips/scratches, bird sh*t? How do you care for/clean vinyl? How long does it last? Does removal harm the paint?

I know there are other options like permanent paint protection, clear bra expel. How are those compared to these? Price? Long lasting?

I'm so disappointed by the weakness of the water based paint, scratches, birdsh*t, brake dust. I love my car but it's impossible to keep it clean. I'm frequently embarrassed by the way my car looks. I work a ton, I'm off maybe 3, 4 days per month and work 10 plus hour shifts, which for a pseudo-ocd car guy leaves me only with enough time to clean my car. LOL

I have that nervous, excited sick feeling I get in my gut when considering new mods.

Discuss.

I just got an estimate from a local shop to wrap my car in a matte black. He had quoted me $2700.
