Default wiper cowl pic needed

Hey guys put my wiper cowl back on my car and there's a gap where it meets the windshield. I don't remember if it was like this before I removed it or not. Clips are all in right. Looks like there was a strip of foam that ran along the edge that's a bit wore out.
Can someone take a pic of where the cowl meets the windshield and confirm if there is a lil gap or if it sits tight to the window.

Thanks

Is it foam that's tight against it? Or the plastic. I'm thinking my foam around the edge is just bad. All the clips and holes line up. I'm picky and don't remember there being a gap. Its been off the car since last October

No foam just plastic......some parts of it are tight against the windshield and some are not (about a 1mm gap), mine is like that at least.

HTH

Did you replace the strip of foam that ran along the cowl edge?
If so, what did you use and where did you get it from?

I have the same question/issue. I'm curious what could be used as replacement foam?
