I think they tried to use the pre face lift stencil that their computer program cut out but it was WAY off.. so then they moved to the quarter glass.. tried to use the facelift stencil and it was way off.. so had to use the pre facelift stencil.. WTF! I just wanted to share, I thought it was odd...

nope they made the switch at 99
