Default Questions for those with vinyl roof wrap

Wanted to follow up with some of you who have had vinyl wrap on your roofs now through the winter and maybe even a year or so. How is the gloss black wrap wearing down? Looking scratched and faded or looking great?

Most places in my area warranty it from 90 days to a year! I'm wondering the same thing. I'm sure there are a lot of variables.
