Ladyinpurple,
I would find the polka dots to be too distracting.
I have a fw that I had repainted a lovely dark metal flake purple, the paint looks a bit different depending on where you're standing. The paint color is a called "radar blue" was original to a 2004 PT Cruiser. The top picture is more true to color.
The finish on my machine was in very poor condition, however it sewed beautifully. All of the clear coat was gone as were the decals. There was no paint left on the front edge of the machine and along the front bottom edge.
