Default trim (to paint or not to paint) PICS!!! need opinions

I just want some opinions on this... I finally found a good pic of a similar color sedan as mine, but with painted trim.... I personally think the unpainted trim still looks better, but I want to see what everyone else thinks now that there's some comparison...

btw, I'm still not gonna paint them






those are the closest shots angle-wise that I already have.... try to disregard differences in mods....

I dunno, maybe its just the way I'm looking at it, but the trim unpainted kinda gives it dimension.... maybe with a different body color, the trim would look good painted, but I dunno....

Paint it white while you are getting your trim painted.
