Question about Upper Control arm

Hey guys, I was replacing the front brake pads when I looked up and saw this. Does this look right? just seems to be a rubber washer just floating there.

Cheers

It probably looks like that due to it being stretched since you have it up in the air, if anything just take it out and inspect the bushing.

Looks like that bushing is toast. It's allowing the corner to move around more which will make handling less composed and cause unusual tire wear.
