wraps have been around for a while, and they're still pretty expensive to put on. Tint is cheaper because you don't have to disassemble a car, and a flat surface is much cheaper to wrap than a car with curves and edges. I don't see the price going down unless you can somehow automate it, theres a lot of labor involved.
Also, wraps need special care. You can't leave it in the sun too long, otherwise it will literally bake onto your car, making it look bad and removal tough. If you don't clean it once a week, you'll have nasty stains from bird poop and other dirt thats impossible to remove. Also, you need to remove and re-wrap every 5 years, even if you care for it well. It doesn't make sense for 99% of people who don't really care about the color of their car.
