Pin stripping problems

I have a 97 Deville with beige pin strips along the car. I thought the car would look cleaner without them so I began to peel off the fron driver side one. After half way through I noticed that half the pin strips where painted on the car and the other half was a sticker. Now I have a chunck of "pin stripe" missing and I want to get the other half painted so it looks normal. Where can I go to get this done and what kind of paint prep should I do ? I was thinking of buying some thin chrome pin striping and just covering the old pinstrips in this chrome stuff. I think it might look good since my car is silver, what do you guys think ? Thanks
 
To be honest, I think since you are going to have to pay someone to re-install the pinstriping you removed, I would see if they can get the painted stripe off and leave them off completely, otherwise I would go back with the tan stripe. I assume your interior is tan?
