The windshield was replaced today, and I'm pretty sure the previous gasket was flat and flush with the glass all the way around.

However the new gasket has a double layer sticking up on both sides, and the top single layer isn't flush.

Isn't the gasket supposed to be a single flush layer all the way?

Can someone confirm this for me?

My concern is with this being right in front and being a big drag with the wind.
