No, but I've seen them upside down and it sure doesn't look right.

If that is a reproduced grille emblem then I think the top arrow on the back is wrong. I had the same dilemma on mine and I compared to my original one. The reproduction has the word top on the back wrong. Or at least opposite from my original. Hope that makes sense.

I'm just looking at the angle of the emblem opposed to the angle of the grill and the notch in the emblem below the grate seems like it should be on top of the grate..if it was flipped over i think the emblem would be more plumb.

as far as I know it is original. weird...who's got pics of original, unmolested grill emblems?
