I have no reason to post fake stuff. This is hard to believe but true. My purpose here is to warn others and hear suggestions as to what the solution(s) might be. The dealer used the wrong template and did a horrible job cutting the bumper. Should never have been delivered like this. The service department head told me that he was upset that his guy did it this way. Of course I asked him why he approved the delivery! This A big dealership in our area.
My main point is that buyers should be aware that the OEM hitch requires a cutout and some dealers are not aware of the proper way to do this. Customers should be made aware of this before the installation. I added a picture from Mazda Customer care that shows the proper hole template/cutout.

Yes, but honestly, nobody needs to be wary of getting a dealer installed hitch (as your title suggests). What they need to be wary of is crappy nut job mechanics that royally fck up a job.
You should have never accepted the car in that condition. I would demand they replace it with an OEM bumper that is 100% color matched.
