I am planning to have a black top, Led boy had already done that, someone post his white car with black top, looks great so I am doing that as well,

the problem is I can not find a way to finish the edge, hope you guys know what I am trying to tell, some cars like BMW, the top is like a seperate piece, so it is easy to get the edge done and hide the tint film under the top piece. however the top of our celica is with the whole body and there is no place to hide the edge of the tint film.

anyone done this before? I dont want to paint the top:( any idea?

The red part is the part I want to make it black.

You would need some reaaally dark tint to get that to look good.
Possibly even a couple layers since your car is white.
Theres a shop locally that does the 3M carbon fibre wrap on roofs and it looks really good.
Maybe shop around and see if theres a shop around you that does that as well, or like said before paint it.
I really don't think tint will look good, nore will it hold up to the elements, or even pressure washing your car..
