wrap or new paint

So I was looking at vinyl wraps for minis and some of them look pretty good. The one that went to motd this year looked good in person as well. I am looking to change my brg into a more of a lime green or different shade. Think camaro synergy green or mustanf got to have it green. Or a darker like green nothing to bright. Then I want to change my white roof to black and do two black stripes down the center of the hood. Starting at the ends of the hood scoop and going in with about a 6 inch gap between the two.

What is the price differences in a decent/good paint job compared to a good professional vinyl job and what are really the up sides to the vinyl that so many peiple are doing it. I would like something that will look good 5 years down the road.

Anybody have some auggestions
