Thinking of doing something different with paint

Well I am a painter/bodyman at a local bodyshop and have been painting for a bit of time. Since I know how to fix and paint cars I swear I can't keep mine perfect and it really pisses me off. Dings and scuffs everywhere. Well I am gonna re do the whole car. Why not a color change.

I am kinda thinking white with very light blue pearl. I painted and customized the body on the s-10 the same color scheme and I am thinking it would look bad ass on the balt with some black rims and a chrome lip. I would post pics of this truck if I knew how.

Any way what do you guys think? Any other ideas?

That would look kick ass. Im working at on an 06 Lincoln Town Car at my body shop that is that same color. Go for it just dont go overboard with the blue i think that kills the effect.
