There's definitely pros and cons to wrap, paint, etc. I went with a full wrap including door jambs since the Edition 1 is only available in Selenite Gray here in the US and I wanted something more "colorful." I went with a wrap as it allows me to keep the OEM paint intact (and retain some resale value) while giving me some options to customize the car a bit.
Yes, depending on the installer, the corners could show that it's clearly a wrap job amongst other things. That's why it's important to find a quality shop - all wrap jobs are not created equal.
I've gotten a ton of compliments on my wrap to the point where I thought, maybe I should've just painted it. Oh well. It's still rather new so I'll rock the blue for another year or so before I make my next move.

Looks like a first class job! How did you black-out your grill? Was the star wrapped as well?
If I can shed some light on the wrap subject. Iv wrapped almost every car Iv ever owned. A quality wrap can achieve 99% paint look. The idea that gloss vinyl isn't shiny is absurd. Here is just a tiny sampling...
