My front two coilovers have caused me problems since i installed them (squeaking/creaking, nothing major). I always thought the creaking noises were due to the fact that I didn't torque anything down to spec but as I went to flush my coolant today I noticed the two top hat dust cover plates (or whatever they're called) were not sitting identical to eachother. The right doesnt look flush with the same small gap. Heres some pictures to show what im talking about

Right

Left

(sorry for huge pics)

I made sure the coils were installed correctly a few months ago, triple checked everything, even reinstalled the front to put new dust covers on for the top hat bearing. The wheels were straight when the pictures were taken and parked on a flat surface (my garage). I'm not THAT car knowledgeable, but i know the basics and this cant be right..
