Light Blue would be the least hideous out of those colors.

if the cream & white if for a 2 tone being old style way of door & rear side then all the colors would be acceptable.. it is all about what is your preference.. what color is interior.. thatt may help you decide....

Other than the Black/Cream, the rest other colors imo would only look good on 67' and later VW's. Im not a big 2 tone fan on bugs, but 2 toning a 67' and later especially a Super Beetle is terrible.
