After 50 years I am about to get my second VW. I have mostly been into Mopars all my life but now I want to get into the VW world and I'm already considering my options on many things.

I am getting a 67 bug and I know paint will be needed so I'm wondering if it is best to match the interior metal to the exterior color. I was considering matte charcoal for the interior and then started to second guess that idea. Thoughts?

The problem is where would you drop the line? The factory painted them inside and out, no lines. I suppose you could paint the door frames a different color, but the dash would be difficult.
