As flat and square as they are, I tend to agree.

This is too late since you already ordered, but I just took the emblems off my truck. The emblems are different on the leading vs trailing edge tapers but I doubt that anyone would notice. Only the one alignment pin is different on the back, otherwise everything is in the same position.
I noticed the hole patterns are also not in the same position on each fender. The driver's side pattern is 1/2" farther back.

Yes, I agree with all that. The one hole will be covered by the emblem though.
