With wrapping there are so many options and it protects the original paint underneath. I have seen cars done and it was that good you could not tell. I don't know what it costs but probably a lot cheaper than paint.

A good wrap properly done is about as expensive as a spray job. The paint has to be in ideal condition because anything wrong with it will show through the wrap. As to areas where the colour is different will be the same with a wrap as I doubt if they’ll do the engine bay or boot area although a good wrap will include door shuts hence the cost. Wrap is not always guaranteed to protect the paint after removal as this can be problematic too
