Matt,
NO Panteras came with an undercarriage plaque. Pre-L Panteras came
with a pair of plaques on the valve covers, later done away with on
the L models. Many people relocated the one that didnat fall off,
down to the chassis between the swaybar mounts.
Your setup is a custom aftermarket deal created by the Pantera
vendors.
