Default New paint job

I have accured way to many stones chips on the front of my car to bare with it anylonger.. So I have decided to re-spray the front end and bonnet.. Also need to fix up some holes in the nose where number plate was stuck on.. Moved interstate and the plates were smaller. While Im there Im going to touch up all the marks and chips and get it back to a smooth Galaxy Blue..

Next step is where I need a hand.. What you think about?

Putting a subtle pearl going over the base coat? House of Kolor do a paint like that, I have attached a pic to illustrate. The paint went over the top of the Mercury Silver.

Or the other is called Crystal Rainbow and puts subtle metallic flakes over and slighly pearls on different angles.

Advantage to both of these paint jobs is that they go over your existing coat so no need to re-spray engine bay, inside doors that sort of stuff. Touch up work is relatively easy, when compared with other pearls.

Any thoughts?
