Down south here, i was quoted £1600 to do external only or £2200 to do external and inside door shuts etc too!
Apparently takes 3 days to do too!

Ok, may be a stupid question but what are the advantages of wrapping a car over repainting? How durable is a wrap?

regarding durability.
my friend has had his quattroporte done for a couple of years.
on tight bends e.g. doormirrors its crept a bit . above drivers door the edge is peeling back . all else looks ok ( but not really into the matt look.) coat 800 quid here(labour still cheap) he is planning to re do it matt orange... so unlike a respray it a bit more flexible( pun intended) however have not seen it removed yet...so dont know if uas effected base colour. It is better to have and not need it then need and not have it.

Not sure if they use the same stuff but when London cabs have their advertisement wrapping removed they usually require a respray (though this is part of the deal). You may have to fork out for a respray anyway if you sell the car.

That G4 wrap looked great, I liked the carbon wrap on the grill. An easy mod?

This video of an RRS wrap was on the youtube page of the D3 wrap. Looks relatively easy but I'm sure there's a learning curve. 16 D4 Landmark
