I just wanna know where the break away would be between the roof and side part of the doors cause it's seamless !! :-(

IMHO you should get smacked for plasti dipping the roof of a $40k+ Luxury Sport sedan.
Experiment with the wheels is one thing but not the roof.

Just get a gloss/matte black roof wrap or carbon fiber for under $250 tops at a reputable vinyl shop.
