Unhappy Cargo net knobs scratched up.

I just noticed that the knobs in the trunk that hold the cargo net on my new car are all scratched up. Looks like whatever power driver they use to install them spun on the surface and scratched them up. This was only on the driver's side, the passenger side were okay.

Anyone else have this?

I'm going to ask my dealer for new knobs, I just hoped the idiot that installed them didn't strip the fittings. Also the driver side of my rear deck isn't installed properly and you can see the frame between it and the C-pillar. So much for perfect build quality.

Yep, at least one of mine is also scratched, as if someone used a power driver tool to tighten it and the tool slipped and made a nice spirograph pattern all over the top of it. The knob is still functional, so I'm waiting until the first service appointment to decide if I'm going to bother asking for a replacement.

Aren't they installed at the factory? I know the TSX has them installed by the dealer but since the cargo net is not an option I would imagine they are installed by the factory.

By the way, mine are fine but won't these eventually get scratched anyway?
