They are all like that....its essentially an SSE (i means it has a supercharger) not really a trim package thing.

Or so goes my understanding

Isnt that a 'filler' piece of trim? Maybe the previous owner could only find an sse to fill the void?

yes the ssei has the same bumpers and everything so it will say sse. the only difference on the appearence are the badges. alien put a shiny decal that says supercharged on his it is not standard.

Think of the SSEi as an SSE. That'* what it was at first, just an SSE with a check on the option sheet.
