Not that bad-looking at all. They got the GXP logo down correctly. The GXP letters are meant to be gray with a black "flag" on a silver background. But since the background is black, they made the flag white. I like the inversion.
I still would have liked the superimposition of the GXP logo (as it is on the car) on a black background. Similar to these:
There are a few things I'd change though:
I'd like it for them to get the kerning on the numbers ("303," "323," and "5.3") a little better, i.e. tighter spacing. Also, the build date should have matched (in style) the engine numbers. "LS4" isn't quite the LS2/LS3 font (oh well). And finally (at least for me), "LITER"/"LITRE."![The Judge](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_judge.gif)

sorry I forgot to post the link and price, its $80.00 shipped, they don't have them for our car so I asked them if they can custom make one for us.
