Maybe we can change the red to the same color as the letters in GXP (since it's nothing but a basic color inversion). Remember that is supposed to represent a checkered flag.

Original:



In fact, the whole thing needs to be standardized, lol.

The same font used in "HP", "TQ", and "LITER" needs to be applied to "Purchased"/"Build Date". It also needs to be unbolded.

The actual build date/purchase date will need to be in the same font as DOD/AFM from our engine covers.

"5.3", "LITER", "303", and "323" need to use the font used on our engine covers as well.

Reference:



I'm going to assume the "LS4" is fashioned in the same manner as the LS2s and LS3s (font and style-wise). If it isn't, it needs to be, and underlined: LS4

Reference:



And throw a little red in the Pontiac badge.

Only thing that sucks is that it comes back with "unknown" for my build date.
