Whats wrong with this picture? Brace is bent?

The running board brace is bent forward on both sides as if ito accomodate the fender. Is there something wrong? Could they be the wrong fenders?

It looks like it is up too high, does the running board lay flat on the other two braces, how about the ones on the drivers side?

The other side is bent forward too. I didn't check the level of the running board but to the eye, the brace looks to be at the same height as the others.

I think they are supposed to be bent a little. I questioned the same thing on our truck. I test fitted the running boards to verify and they seem to fit ok, but I haven't gotten to putting the bed and rear fenders on yet.
