81-87 tailgate emblem. Bottom photo, that emblem is plastic. It always has been. When I bought mine, it was a NOS GM part. It’s plastic, just like the fender emblems.
Mine's metal. It's the top one. That first truck I posted is not mine I just grabbed it from google. Didn't realize that much of a difference. This got me curious and I called the previous owner (2 owner truck including me) and he said his dad backed into something way back when, and apparently they had to replace it. Even he did not notice that the emblem was wrong afterwards. So I guess I'm not the only one...
