not normal. sounds like it got into a wreck or got messed up when trying to install it. after mine got in a wreck the body shop who did the work screwed up one of the screws and now my line isn't completely flush

That happened to me too. I tried clips and it didn't work, so I took it to a body shop they fixed it perfectly but it set me back about $350 with labor and the parts they had to order.
