There really is a learning curve to how you can heat and stretch the vinyl to get around corners without wrinkles and without compromising the installation long term.

Nothing to do with labor cost. The guys in the industry here are businessman first, artist second. They won't charge you 4k for a wrap. Instead they'll do it for 1/4 of that price but make sure you come back each year to re-wrap - or tell a friend. Of course being inexpensive, the volume of cars they wrap per week is "immense". Fully booked, 18hrs per day, always 2~3 guys in the average 'shop'.
More work you'll say, yes, but at the end.... it pays off so much more than doing only a handful of expansive and detailed jobs. Materials gets so much more cheaper also as you use 4x times more.
Get it!?
