Vinyl wrapped roof owners

Regarding the long term, 1-2 years, how did the vinyl hold up, and was it difficult to remove? On the fence about it, debating if I should go vinyl or paint. Local shops are quoting $400-$450 to wrap, a little more if they have to remove the shark fin.
Is that the average going rate for wrap? Seems kind of expensive to me, if it was PPF I’d probably be more ok with the price seeing as the cost of PPF is higher and it offers protection and comes with warranties.
Appreciate any input.

I've had my roof wrap for 2 years no chips or peeling. I paid $400 took a couple of hours, removing is very easy won't leave any marks.

The vinyl wrapped roof will look good on a lighter color car.

I bought a 5x4 sheet of vvivid air release gloss black vinyl and I'm going to try it myself (was only $30 shipped). I'm also curious about longevity and what kind of sealer could go on it to prolong the life. I know meguiars ultimate wax can go on vinyl but it has a short working lifespan in the sun
