Hi Katrina. If you want a lot of contrast between the colours then midnight blue and white would look excellent. If you want to brighten the whole
thing up more you can easily get the blue in a metallic or pearl base to give it much better highlights in the sun. You can do the white in pearl as
well but it will dirty up the white a bit as pearl turns white a bit creamy.
Have fun choosing colours. It's the best bit : )

ian.mezz, i am not sure i understand your posts... your first post was irrelevant because its an orange bug not blue... and everyone knows what a 2
tone bug is
and your 2nd post isn't even 2 tone!
sorry to have a rant but i just had to pull you up on the irrelevance of your posts... hahaha

in older 60's bug's i think they would look better in the sea blue, but for anything with elephant feet taillights, go the dark blue, dark colours
look great on L's!!
