Nah. Too much trouble and it will make the piece look worse, not better. I'm
going to leave it out on the X-Wing canopy as well.

I was considering doing this piece the other day, and I think I concluded that
color 24 edge-lines should be used because of the way the front rounded surface
meets the side and top surfaces (and the way the two rounded sections meet).
It's not an entirely "smooth" contact point, and the angle of incidence is
enough to be pretty obvious when looking at the part.
