Default about ralco short shifter bent to much? need help

I recently ordered a ralco short shifter for my 2003 lexus is300, i figured out how t install it, but my question is has anyone else encountered a significant huge bend in the shifter, when installed it sits/ leans towards the driver side? also has anyone encountered that the shift **** is really tough to come off, still cant get it offf. =(

ahh ok so i guess the bend is normal, it just looks odd installed, like it is leaning alot to the driver side, will take pics. BTW how much are you selling your b&m for? kinda looks exactly alike to the ralco

Selling it for $130 shipped. The Ralco is a copy of this one but they don't make mine anymore. I REALLY liked it but swapped tranny's and had to spend $300 on another one
