Default Pin Stripe

How do you think a pin stripe would look on the side of my 2004 Charcoal Coupe. I have a lot of road nicks that were on the hood, fornt bumper and on the upper part of front quater panels. If I get the hood, bumper, and upper front quaters painted, it might blend in better with a pin stripe, if the paint doesn't match perfectly. I am trying to keep the repainting to a minimum, I don't want to paint the whole car because of some nicks. Open for advice.

Why not take the opportunity to go with a two-tone as long as your going to paint? Black on the sides maybe?? Or white ?
Not a big fan of pin stripes unless its to break up a two tone.

I am not really a big fan of Pinstripes on modern cars. But I have to admit that Pinstripes do look good on classic cars as well as those lowriders. But that's just me.
