Might have come from the factory that way too..... I have seen trucks come into the dealership (right off the truck from the factory...) With Chevy badges on the front, and drivers side, (including hubcaps) and GMC badges on the rear, and passenger side. (again, including hubcaps......)

Funny you mentioned this. Read the thread the other day and wouldn't you know it... today at wally world I was like.... something ain't right about that truck. Then thought of this thread. Caught him as he was pulling out of the parking spot.

If you look in the picture that pcfixer posted, you will see the the DODGE and the 4X4 are too close to the edges of the tailgate, indicating that someone moved them.
I've seen a couple Rams like that around here too, looks weird as hell.

And as for OP getting a UK market Ram tailgate...BS. Why would you ship a tailgate from the UK when you can get one SOOO much cheaper here?
Doesn't make sense.

someone could have switched tailgate with a dodge that was in better shape.

I think he was joking on that one, cause you know they drive backwards over there, and yeah that pic does look the badges are to close to the edge. Mine look exactly right they are just reversed, I'll try to take a pic real quick later today. Yesterday I found out the hood is actually from another truck too, so something must have happened to it. Whatever it was didn't get reported though, carfax didn't show any accidents on the truck.
