Default Is it me or is this bent?

Could someone please take a look at this picture for me? It seems to me the brace above the panhard rod is bent. But for all I know, it's supposed to have that curve in it.

Sorry, the picture is kinda lousy. This is taken from the rear of the car, on the passengers side. The silver bar running diagonally across the pic is the PHR.

Thank you!

I couldn't say for sure but It may like for exhaust clearance. Something about it does look strange though. Did you install the panhard bar?

Looks normal to me...they are bent that way from the factory.

It's fine. Bent like that for the exhaust pipe to clear it.

Looks like the bar is hitting the brace in one spot, where the rub mark is...
