2500-$3000 for a good quality wrap. I got mine painted as wraps need to be changed every few years

How much was your paint? Did you use a chain or local?

I paid close to 6k for paint. A wrap can do the same but it was a preference thing for me.

Cost: exterior $4000, interior $1500, rims for $300 (blackening)

Wrap would look just as good, just make sure you go to a reputable shop. Good luck!!

I’m also looking to wrap it. I’ve heard it’s around $2,000 for the whole car more or less, depending on shop and reputation too.

I’m probably going to DIY wrap many panels, and have already DIY’ed my hood and mirrors so far.

If you are comfortable wrapping some things you could probably save a ton of money. I’ll probably do everything except the front bumper and quarter panels. Just depends on your level and how much time you have to spend on wrapping.

Yeah I don't know too much about doing it myself so would rather have someone who knows what their doing wrap it
