pin stripe or no pin stripe?

My 1990 GSX will be repainted next month. It is currently dark blue (factory color) with grey pin stripe. I was thinking about leaving the pin striping off when repainting the vehicle. Anyone care to comment on which way they think would look better.

Personally I'd leave it off. When my Laser is repainted, all of the pin striping will be staying off. A lack of pin striping is one thing which I really like about the aesthetics of my Grand Prix.

Leave it off. Pinstriping was cool (I guess) in the early 90's, but definitly not now!

It depends on some pin striping some look good, while others do not.

Pinstripes are retarded. Dark blue is the sex!

It looks like everyone agrees the pin stripe should stay off. I was leaning to not re-striping the car now this confirms it. Thanks all.
