If you drive it mostly on nice days with the top down, it would look great. I don't think it'll look right with the top up. But it's your car bro.

It should still look good with the top up IMO. What color tops did 30th Anniv. Verts have? I don't know why I thought I've seen a 30th Z28 Vert or a 30th clone with a tan top before.

Idk man, I don't think it would look the greatest. If you have a white top I would say def go for it, even with a black top it would look good, but I think the tan and orange would clash. If you do decide to do it, post pics because I want to see how it looks. I think you would be better off just leaving it without stripes with the tan top.

Tan and orange actually work quite good together. But your main color is white with a tan secondary color. Adding orange as accent should work.

I am sure someone can photoshop that up or knowing this is ls1tech, someone has them on their white/tan camaro already...

I think the car would look sweet, tan and orange do mix well and when the top is down, all you will see is just the white and orange. It would also be a unique mod giving me an even greater reason to say DO IT!
