Is it supposed to be this way?

I got a set of used rear bumper brackets from Crossy(Dave) and got'em all sanded and painted and installed and they look good.I found the bumper locally and installed it yesterday along with a new front bumper since it had a bent place in it.

The problem is the rear bumper doesn't look right to me.I've got it level as it should be,but the top of the bumper doesn't run parallel to the lower trim on the tail gate and looks strange.In other words the middle of the bumper is higher than the ends.The distance from the lower trim to the top of the bumper at both bed corners is about an inch an a quarter but in the center the measurement is only five eights,so there's an obvious bow up in the center.

This is the chrome type bumper that matches the front.Does anybody else have this type so I can know if mine was stamped properly or not?

Thanks

Tom
