Hello everybody

Does anyone know for what reason the grill of this international is not centered?

On photos with lifted cabin,  I see, as far as i can see, nothing unusual in the engine compartment.

Looks like somebody installed the grille upside down which apparently doubled the "normal" offset.

Grille attachment points are offset and centered around the offset radiator. Clear as mud.

Looks like a fresh paint job.  I'd guess either a stupid mistake or a joke at the paint shop. Being that the image was posted on the internet it might have been done as "clickbait".

Don't waste your time trying to figure a practical or functional reason.  There is none.
