09 coupe windshield replacement

Last December I hit a deer and had the windshield replaced. The molding that goes across the top never looked right to me. Essentially, the molding actually lifts up like a flap. Has anyone had their windshield replaced and what does it look like now?
I had the glass guy out yesterday and he said that it was normal. Thoughts?

Pics would help here, but no, it does not sound right. The worst thing, beside s the visual aspect, is that the upper windshield trim is PARTICULARLY prone to causing wind noise.

Meet the glass guy someplace that has a car like yours with the OEM winshield so he can see what normal really looks like...

Yes, I would post them but not sure how to on this board.

It is a little louder.

I know exactly what you mean. I got mine replaced and the strip along the top is all ugly. I'll post a pic for you. You can use sites like photobucket or imgur.

I went to the dealer and checked it out. Pretty noticeable difference. I would appreciate if you can post a picture. I guess I will see if they sell the molding from Infiniti and ask the glass guy to install it.
