I had forgotten that the one I put on from Year one around '95 had the red outlined lettering.

Is it possible that when they were painted they were masked on some kind of jig, sprayed red then moved to another jig masking the letters again leaving some red outline and sprayed black???

First thing to wear off would be the black exposing the once covered red paint.

Any partly worn originals or N.O.S. ones out there?

Thanks for the input. Gary.
