I wouldn't know why he would do it on purpose.

I don't know! He could be a jerk! I do have techs that are certified for the R8, S8, etc at my work so I'm sure Nissan does it the same way. I just don't get how they could have done that. The install is so easy. Sorry your having to deal with this!

Honestly, I doubt the mechanic would risk losing his job just cause he's a jerk... I think he's prolly earning quite a good salary compared to a lot of other mechanics in Brussels. It doesn't really make sense for him to bend it like that unless he thought it was necessary for the installation?
