Vinyl Wraping an X5/ Looking for the TRUTH!

[Pre-H20]

Hey Guys.....

Sooooo I'm thinking about wrapping my X5 in matte black vinyl.

There's nothing fancy about my X5, not a show piece or racer nor do I obsess over it in any way.

BUT......

Looking for a bit of a change... I like the idea of a matte black finish and blacking out my wheels.

I WONT be fixing any dents, don't care if the job is 100% perfect, just want to change things up a little bit.

So I'm looking for your collective wealth of knowledge and opinions.

Cost?
Can you wash it?
Does it fade?
Bird POOP?
Dirt and grime?
How long does it last?
Does it ruin the paint?
How hard is it to remove? is it a DIY job or back to the shop for removal?
How long does it take to wrap an X5 ? 1 hour? 8 hours? a week? a month?

Yes... I know I can ask the installer ALL these questions and I know the answers ALL will be positive. THAT'S what I don't want......

I want the truth dammit! I can handle the truth! (movie reference)

Thoughts greatly appreciated!

Good and bad..... makes no difference.
