After testing out the STP scheme with a special Pontiac scheme, I decided it was probably easier to use the default game manufacturer templates. Since the 43 Richard Petty Motorsports team currently runs Ford Fusions, I decided to see how one of the older paint schemes would look on the current body style.

Paint Booth 2: STP #43 Pontiac Paint Scheme
Exploring the paint booth in NASCAR '14 a bit more, it seems the brush creator is pretty much the same from the previous game. Creating a custom brush is the key to making logos that you will want to replicate in various parts of the car in order to make an accurate/true to life scheme. While there are areas they could have improved on, such as providing more fonts, or outlines for fonts and shapes, they haven't taken a step back either. Once you're experienced with using the basic shapes the game provides, it's not too hard to make whatever you want -- just kinda tedious.
Either way, I decided to go with a classic orange-side-panel STP car to first test my logo with. I also created a small Pontiac logo to go with the design. I chose the Toyota body type, because the shape of the nose seems to fit that of the old Pontiacs the best.

I think the nose can be crafted to fit the curves of the Toyota body style a bit better, and the STP logo still requires some work, but this provided to base for my next retro style paint sche,e.
