Got the front runner tailgate table and I opened it up and noticed it doesnt quite open to 90 degrees (see photo). Is this intentional in the way it mounts or is this a defect? Does the top stick forward more than the bottom to compensate for the tilt? It looks like it's probably intentional but I just had to ask before I went and drilled anything.

Probably intentional. The top of the tailgate is about 1/8" further out than the bottom. Most tables have stick-on rubber feet at the bottom to compensate for this. Looks like this one takes an angled approach.

TBH, rubber feet is likely better. This one might rattle on bumps and/or damage the plastic. But IDK.

After install does it angle up in the front or does it sit fairly flat?

when the table part is down it seems to be angled up just a little bit. it is level side to side on the tail gate.

Maybe to keep things from sliding off.
