I was in the same boat when I wanted to switch my car’s color. After looking up
vinyl wrapping, I decided on a full wrap instead of a repaint, and I’m glad I did. Tintex did mine, and they use high-quality films that last up to 7 years if properly maintained. Unlike repainting, wrapping actually protects your original paint from minor scratches and sun damage. Plus, if you ever get tired of the color, you can just peel it off and go back to stock. The key is choosing a good installer—if the wrap is applied correctly, it looks just as seamless as paint. I’d say if you want flexibility and protection, vinyl is the better choice.
