Will this look weird?

So right now I have a black 2LT/RS with beige interior, however I am thinking about getting after market rally stripes that more closely resemble the bumblebee stripes in white. I have a feeling the white stripes might look weird with the beige interior, what do you all think?

It just depends on how OCD you are about colors matching. I am VERY particular about having colors look right togeher....... So personally I wouldn't like the white stripes with the beige interior... but it may be just me.

I like it alot. I'm getting Black as well and also having my stripes done custom. Not sure on the design yet. Don't know about the beige interior. Thinking about it, I can see your concern. Are you just opposed to black?

I've seen worse, but I think it would look a bit wierd. Maybe change to a black or gray interior?

Well since we're just giving 'opinions' I don't see how anyone can like beige for an interior. Beige looks cheap to me.

It will not look good.

Beige aftermarket custom painted stripes would be a possiblity.

I am really starting to think about the beige interior because I am getting tired of having black leather which I have had in my past 4 cars. But I am running into the problem that the OP is having; I also want stripes but I am debating if I want that many colors on my car.

Well the problem is I am not sure I will be getting the stripes yet. I think if I get the stripes I would want to have the black interior, but if I don't get the stripes I would want the beige because I want something to break up the color. I am worried that I might get the car expecting to get white stripes and then end up not wanting the stripes if I go with the black interior.

My wifes car she has now is the first one I've ever had with black interior. I always stayed away because of the heat factor but I'm hooked. Everything flows really well and the leather is always even and healthy looking when conditioned. So my opinion may be scewed a little.

Order without and get them either custom or have them put on by the dealer later. It's a tuff choice. Hard too. Good luck.
I still say as far as White goes I wouldn't have vynil. Painted will be 100x better.

IMO, no to the beige interior w/ white stripes. Beige STRIPES would match though.

Basically do what you want. If you love that combo, go for it.

I personally don't like the scheme you mentioned but I won't be sitting in your camaro. I'm old school, went with the gray interior and Black exterior, no stripes. Had I done the SS, I would have gone with Cyber grey stripes.

Any idea how soon after the Camaro is on the market that after-market "bumblebee stripes" will be available in vinyl? I don't think I'll be able to afford painted as I have heard it would cost something like $2000, but I can afford the $300-$400 for vinyl, and it looks perfectly good for my needs from seeing the pictures.

sounds fine to me, especially if you tint the windows. you don't really see the interior & exterior at the same time, so i think you're good
