The other day I had a bit of an off :oops: And now my right hand brake/shift levers are bent inwards:

How would I go about sorting this? I dont seem to be able to remove the hood to have a closer look without stretching/cutting it :?

Thanks peeps:D

    Doesn't look bent, just squint. Try banging it with your hand, see if it moves.
    The clamp that secures STi's is hidden under the hood (on the outside), slacken, adjust angle and re-tighten.
    I don't tighten mine too much, so that if I come off the twist around bar instead of bend.

    Cheers for that. It's definitely bent compared to the other side no matter how much I squint :wink: Found the installation guide so will have another look this weekend, otherwise I'll be pecking your head agains :lol:
