Problems with my armrest

Hello

My armrest lid does not close properly. It seems misaligned. What is the easiest way to fix this. It seems kind of bent. The back part of the lid is slanted. happened after having the car detailed. The car is a 93 400e.

Got a pic of it? You can't bend it back? They are sold as one unit so I don't believe you can buy a part that's busted on them.

I would pimp slap the detailer and force him to rectify or poo-poo him all the way to the Dept. of Consumer Protection and the Better Business Bureau. That's just me though and that's why I learned to detail cars myself !! Those armrests aren't too cheap.
