If the car didn't have TPI from the factory they would not have the TPI emblem on the bumper,regardless of how late in the year it was produced.Sounds like a previous owner put it on there for whatever reason.

Agreed, it does not belong there, Thre are however strange things that happen in the factory, and I have seen 1/2 GMC 1/2 Chevrolet S-10/15 Trucks, brand new on the dealer Lot. Reguardless, it does not belong UNLESS it has TPI from the factory. 8th didget of the VIN will be an "F" if it did.
hope that helps...
