2 tone paint with painted side stripe vs solid color with painted white side stripe

I am torn on what paint scheme to go with, I like the solid color with the side stripe painted white between the mouldings. But the factory white top with white side stripe looks great too, I am painting my truck in a gloss grey but unsure if it will be too much of a solid color if I gone with just the white stripe. This is on a 66 c10 short fleet. If you have pictures of your combos please post them up.

Right now I have a gloss white top with a flack black bottom. There is a lime green stripe between the white and black and the V on the top of the hood is white with a green pinstripe.

Examples of a white top and matching side trim over every color imaginable are easy to find. Less common (and my favorite look) are those with a single color and side trim. Both are factory correct schemes, but the one color version gets my vote.

Like the single color and side trim too. Our 64’ C20 is color and trim of truck in photo. Photo of truck pictured is not mine. This blue is a unique color.

Won't have the stripe as it's a stepper, but is two tone.
