What colors tend to hide body lines for cars with tons of hideous or aggressive body lines?

WHITE ON WHITE WITH WHITE.

Beige, like Camry beige.

Alternatively, just drive around with your car cover on?

Or if you're really about the environment or something like that....

Black hides all details.  That's the main reason I dislike black cars.

See I was under the impression that dark colors hid bodylines really well, I was thinking maybe a dark blue that the mustangs hsve

Black hides all body lines a little better than white. The bigger difference is that black gives the illusion of body panels being smaller.

In my opinion, it depends.

Black tends to accentuate sharp lines (new civic type r) and hide graceful curves (nb miata). White is vice versa.

Flat black hides it all. Same with cammo. 

Beige, tan, brown, grey, and nonmettalic burgundy tend to hide lots of stuff to my eye.

See I'd like to draw attention to the silhouette of the car rather than sharp lines of the body, it seems like black or near black colors also hide panel gaps
