what type of bus do you have? the color you choose will have a great impact on the way your bus looks
my first recomendation is to paint your bus the factory color, or at the very least a factory color that was offered for that year.
if you are set on changing color, then the 2 tone tipically splits right below the beltline, inside and out.
