I got mine but im confused on a part of mine.  Heres the VIN:

1FTYR10U63TA08530

But that "8" at the end does not look like an 8 on the actual VIN plate.  It looks like the bottom is a circle and then the top circle has a flat horizontal edge.  Any idea on that?  Ill take a pic of it tomorrow when it is not dark out.
