Question UUC Short Shifter Installed - Looks weird

I just installed the UUC Short Shifter kit today with OEM knob (the UUC knob I order is in back order). The install took the guys at Revolution Racewerks ~2hrs to do, some time was spent just trying to figure out what the instruction said.

The Shifter works great, throw is way shorter than stock and it's more notchy, but I like the feeling, it's like playing arcade game

However the shifter looks funny. It's like it's pointing towards the passenger side when it's in neutral. It looks as if it's in gear when it's in neutral. Here's some pics. Should it look that way? I mean apart from looking weird, it works. I went thru all the gears, even reverse, all goes in w/o problems, no grind.
