Heko wind deflectors- manufacturing issue ?

[Davill9]

Has anyone else had an issue with the moulding when manufactured, of the heko wind deflectors …

the issue I have is the passenger side moulding has,
(where the logo is at far back b pillar section)
Got what looks like an air bubble when moulded.
this doesn’t look as bad as it is in pictures attached and it looks like from a distance, like a really bad pin dent in metal bodywork if you know what I mean.

my question is- has anyone else had an issue like this or is it a one off moulding fault/ manufacturing issue?

it is fine on driver’s side. It is only on passenger’s side but so visible it annoys me already and only been fitted for a few hrs so far.

and the drivers side with no real issues - (what it should look like) -

Tbh given the cost, I wouldn't expect anything different & imho from usage they are awful looking & fitment affects window closure one touch & folding mirrors of a certain year range, for me I'd binned as soon as I fitted.

It’s just I got so sick of driving with a half a blue roll on my door rest all the time when it rains
We’ll atm when doesn’t it rain … it drips down the door onto the ally trim and is starting to make it corrode plus the switches get soaked if I didn’t and I’m always getting wet when I go round a right hand corner

I’m told it’s normal on s3s but my Passat b6 r36 shape never did it and almost same design/shape
Anyways I figured—-
something had to be done- not my first choice mate but - oh and I do have the window open a bit most of the time when driving I should add.
don’t know why… probably habit from when I smoked lol

Tbh I used to years ago have the window open all the time not in an Audi & my work colleagues used to sit there with fat jackets on cause it was so cold & I didn't smoke lol, but did have some fun nights out.

Would you recommend any others, or you're saying deflectors are crap overall?
