Tail stripe with body side moldings. What would you do?

I'm assuming your molding is thin like the factory. We did what your talking about to a buddies car. The paint wasn't that great so we figured what the heck. Once it was done it didn't look to bad. The stripe added more than the molding took away. Those stripes add so much to those cars its a win in my book. Of course that's JMO.
