S4 painting opinions

What do you guys think about painting the black trim the same as the body color? The black trim that goes around the bumper, the black trim around the door handle, the black trim that goes around the whole car, etc.

Do you guys think I'll look cheap?

I'll try to post pics of what I'm taling about in a few hours....

It looks bad on my car, granted the previous owner screwed the paint job over but personally I would leave it black and fix the trim if its looking bad. I have some pics of what mine used to look like. This car is now in the paint shop being fixed, since the other owner ruined it.







Please no flames, I know the car looks ugly as crap (being nice I know). It will look nice and stock/clean when I am done with it. You will see soon enough. So If it were me, I would not do it.
