Default Bent back trunk
i was trying to replace my rear trunk lifts and I put new ones back on and now the trunk is bent. The other side is normal
Any suggestions on how to fix it?

But the other side is flush like it's supposed to be. So is it just the one lift that's messed up?

Did you accidentally get the HD lifts instead of the standard ones? That would cause that.

Willing to bet that side is mounted backwards. Take pictures of how you have the struts mounted to the body and Im willing to bet that side is incorrect
