Need some help with color layout for site

1

I am going to be designing a Web site for a used car dealership. They already have a logo that they use (it’s on all thier business cards and letter head…etc…).

Now the problem is the logo is done in a teal (00B2EC) and megenta (E2007E) color. I’m having trouble figuring out what colors I should do the rest of the site in. I think using those 2 colors as the main colors of the site will look pretty bad…but I’m not really sure what else I can do?

Does anybody have any suggestions (other than trying to convince them not to use their logo)?

Thanks in advance!

have the site be mainly white and just repeat those two colors in other portions of the site. Thin borders and underlines… Maybe a little important text to make it stand out from the rest… Don’t overuse those colors or the site will look like crap… and don’t complete get rid of them because then the logo will stand out too much…
