Default Does this picture show a problem with my Civic?

Hi,
I have a 2011 Civic LX. I bottomed it out the other day on a driveway, nothing too bad I thought. I decided to inspect the underside of the car. While I didn't notice any dents, etc, I did notice some asymmetry between the left and right with a little rubber clamp-shaped thing. I don't know what it's purpose is. As you can see on the right side (picture with red box in it) the rubber piece is not closed all the way and has a gap. For comparison, and more difficult to see due to shadow, the left is. Is this something I need to take into the shop?




Thanks all.

Those would be sway bar bushings and it's perfectly normal for them to sit slightly different.
