Anybody wrapping their car instead of ceramic coating?
I'm ordering in skyscraper grey as was considering just putting on a dark glossy wrap instead of going for a ceramic coating. Pricing will be pretty similar and I figure the wrap will last a while. Plus I got a lot car and my first color choice was black.

Ceramic coating is mostly for gloss and very little protection. It also wears off in a year or two. Both PPF and ceramic coating need paint correction for best results (imperfections will be permanently sealed in otherwise). Not sure how much protection a wrap to change color offers - depends on brand maybe.

When my wife's G80 cam on, I had it both ceramic and wrapped with clear paint protection… it cam out incredible… New York roads are terrible and the paint looks perfect after every wash
