Default Paint the trim or what!?

I plan to get a new paint job. Right now my car is frosh white w/ all the trim still black (moldings, handles, antenna, mirrors, sides skirts) As of right now I cant decided wether to paint the whole car or leave the trim black leaving some contrast. Any ideas and opinions welcomed.

Its a frosh hatch w/ a CF hood, lip, wing, black slips and all the trim being black. Hope that gives you guys a picture.
