For black trim, try using "black foil" from Bare Metal Foil Inc....It's used just as the chrome foil. If you are trying to do black trim strips, try Letraset fine line tape from a drafting supply house.

Use Tamiya masking tape. Apply it over the whole roof line and press down firm. Run a very sharp modelling knife along the lines then remove the middle bit you are painting. Press down firmly again before painting.
Do the same for the windows. Place the tape around the windows then trace around the window frames and remove the piece to paint.
