I just won this front dealer plate

Has anybody ever heard of this before? A turbo plate that dealers used for their showroom cars, supposedly.....did I get a good deal?

I emailed the seller for more info and he said he worked for a Buick dealer for 28 years and they recently closed. He took some GN related stuff and this was part of it. So it sounds authentic. I sent the auction to Kirban and he thinks from the styling that it was made for early GN's, not the 86/87 models. I'll display it on my 86 GN when I'm at car shows.
