<center><img src="http://www.ianwood.com/images/front-uca-bushing.jpg"></center><p>It's the front upper control arm bushing. It was just changed but it looks like they didn't do it right. To me it looks like there's a tear on the side and some sort of indentation on the bottom.

Default I don't know....the spot where the green paint is located looks like the start of a tear
I see the indentation, which looks normal. check the others and compare.....
