Need opinions ASAP!!!!!!! Picking up camaro!

Bigdom10 · 07-21-2017, 10:24 PM

Hey all I'm picking up a 16 2ss hyper blue with kalahari interior and it came with the fender stripes that I am not a fan of! Long story short the dealer is going to throw in a set of rally stripes and I have to decide by tomorrow I'm stuck I really love hyper blue with white stripes but I'm unsure how it would look against the kalahari interior. I know black is probably a safe bet but I really love the white!

Any opinions? Or even better does anyone have this combo?

That would look wicked: unique.

Bigdom10 · 07-21-2017, 10:33 PM

In a good way or bad way lol

MotownBoy · 07-21-2017, 10:39 PM

The only question is: do you like it?

Nothing else matters.

Bigdom10 · 07-21-2017, 10:43 PM

I really don't know because I've never seen a picture of it

Like the HBM with white Rally Stripes. Also like HBM with silver stripes. Not a fan of the hash marks either.

I prefer the 6th gen with no stripes.

YA, drop the hash (I don't get those either) It's all up to you. The white is awesome, even saw one that was pinstriped. The black comes in metallic (I have single stripe) It is not overly stand out hit you in the face, like the white (or the silver for that matter) It's about balance. What ever you decide, it'll look great.
(Single or double stripes)

Black stripes would probably go better from an overall color palette perspective, since the interior will be a mixture of dark and tan colors. White rally stripes would have been better paired up with the ceramic white interior.

Otherwise, you're going to have a lot of colors in and around your car. Not necessarily horrible looking, but a lot of colors. Hyper blue and white on the exterior, black and kalahari on the interior, nothing really "bridging" the two interior and exterior palettes. Slightly disjointed.

Just my 2 cents, but go with what you like best obviously.

I agree with this 100 percent. It's not going to be bad, but it borders on the car making one too many statements with different colors. And nothing to really "tie" them together. Which is usually what an interior does. But then again this is all just forum discussion, Re: the subtle nuances of Camaro modding, that most people outside the forums Won't even notice.......

Black would blend a little better.

mvp88 · 07-22-2017, 09:11 AM

Silver looks best on the Hyper Blue to me.

Have seen a Hyper Blue running around the area with a the Red stripes that run all the way down to the front lip. Look really sharp with a few other red accents.

Haven't seen it stopped yet to get pics but it looks really good.

Ask to have different stripe colors applied in the Photoshop thread.
