There is a difference between 'removed and reinstalled' and 'removed and replaced'. This one is the latter, IMO.

Maybe I am wrong but those numbers just look to crisp. Also the fold in the top and bottom of the tag are very straight. Originals appear more rounded. Look at an original.

I somehow don't see a brand new, shiny trim tag being a good sign.

Nor do I. IMO like was stated earlier the top and bottom ridges appear to be too sharp.

Has anyone seen the actual tool to install that type of rivet ? It must be a strange looking piece.

The date on the tag looks a bit funky to me as well.

There are companys that provide "replacement" trim tags. I'm sure most people on this board know that, but some may not.
