Recently had my bumper cover off and found a metal tag, roughly 3"x5", on a piece of wire tied to the core support. The tag was painted red, the same color as the car. Is this something that was put on at the factory during assembly and someone forgot to remove it before the car left the plant? Curious if anyone has info about these tags.

It's called a buck tag. They hang it on the bare chassis when it starts down the assembly line. I found one on my car in the same spot.
