Thanks, that is what I was told as well .. that the mold was bad and that
the company refused to make a new one till they had used this one up. I'm
sure it can be fixed with some bodywork, but it would have been much nicer
to have a straighter piece that required less work. Also, would be nice if
in the catalog and the web page they TOLD you the part wasn't perfect.
