Recently had my car wrapped Nardo Grey, and wanted to give a shoutout to where I had it done if anyone was interested in getting their car wrapped.

He's a commercial vinyl installer, and does the color change wraps on the side. The only downside to it not being his primary focus (and hence the cheaper price) is he quotes 5 to 8 days to get the job done, where a place dedicated to car wrapping could bang it out in 2 days going full time. I dropped my car off on a Sunday so it was ready to go that Monday, and he reached out on Friday and said I could pick it up Saturday morning.
He lists a Golf as an example of a compact car for a $1K color change, but the base price for my wrap was quoted at $1,200. I elected to have him remove the bumper and trim instead of wrapping around it, which added an additional $250. Total I paid was $1,450, which is still far less than you expect a traditional wrap job to cost. He usually books 6 - 8 weeks in advance, and usually has a pretty full schedule. Was one of the things leading me to trust an advertised $1K color change, someone with subpar work wouldn't have a full calendar.
His $1K color change jobs use a brand of vinyl called CheetahWrap, which he says is similar in quality to 3M 2080. Something like 40 different colors to choose from.
Overall, extremely pleased with how the car came out, and can't recommend him enough if you're in the area and looking to get your car wrapped. Pictures don't do the finished work justice.
