Help with Bodyshop Error?

Hey guys, not sure if the dealer body shop messed up, but on my 2008 G35 Sedan NON SPORT, we had the front bumper and support parts replaced.

When i got the car back there is an ugly threaded female adapter (for tow trucks I am told) can someone check their car (image would be great) and see if they have one of these there, or is it covered?

Thanks

You probably just never saw it before, it's supposed to be there. I think the sport bumpers have a cover since the sport bumper wraps over that area. If you look under your trunk liner where the jack is you'll see the threaded tow hook in there
The body shop is in the clear

I am sure it was always there, but I guess the part color is so bright now that it stands out like a sore thumb.
