Default Painted Lips/Spoiler/Moldings.. or NO

Just bought a little budget car 92 White EG Hatch that needs repaint.. I'm about to order the front and rear lips.. and duckbill.. question is what looks better? all white .. or white with the moldings, lips, spoiler accented in the black?

i think i decided on all white.. ive seen some nice white and black eg's..but most of em had 1 thing in common.. they were sitting on the satin black slipstreams. not that i dont like that. but i've got some red gt3s. i guess pics request would help.. if yall have any pics to support your theories.. thatd be cool too
