 I guess if someone is going to put a tag on, at least push the rivet centers in.   ;)

Could it be that the trim tag was just removed from car then reattached....or is it a reproduction trim tag?

There are a couple of features on it that point to a repop, no doubt.

As to the "clever" workover with a ball peen (or is it pein ?), well, maybe. Wow, how dumb are people ?
