i can't see crap with with your spy cam picture. have you tried loosening the cover screws and try to align it with the body?
Re: scorpion xt1000
Mine has a slight misalignment - but it is very tiny. The reel itself is super smooth and casts a mile out of the box.

Re: scorpion xt1000

I believe the side plates are actually graphite. And I will have to take a look at mine when I get home to see if it's off. I've had my 1001XT for about 2 months now. I gotta say, it's an awesome reel so far. Very good on the performance factors. Casts better than my Core 51 Mg7.
