Exactly, when they first showed the design the reason for the abomination on the front was because all the X-lines vehicles have the route colour on the front.
But, if they're putting the vinyl on anyway then they could have made the front all gold like the rest of the X-lines fleet.
Then it also begs the question, why are they suddenly putting a horizontal bar of colour on the front rather than the vertical lines that is now 'standard' across the X-lines fleet?
I was willing to tolerate the purple on the front, but that vinyl is just awful, it looks like a tacked on afterthought
Since I'm bored, I did a quick 30 second Photoshop job of what I would have done if they insisted on the vinyls
