Also that the wraps applied during cold months always seemed to have more flaws. There are always small spots where you can see folds or cuts no matter how carefully applied. Generally they look very good and believe me, they were not applied with the exacting care a hobbyist will take the time to do.

Absolutely, I'd wrap a car - just depends on what car, wrap and circumstances. Highly subjective. I'm just saying I think the wraps are relatively harmless and look good if done right.
