New PGT Window Installation of Fuzzy Weather Stripping Mistakes?

Hello everyone. Thank you in advance for any help. My wife and I are having a home built and we have PGT windows everywhere. The odd thing is the fuzzy weather stripping on the two vertical sides of each window are exposed and show a plastic strip the entire length of the strip. My builder isn't sure if it's correct or not and the installers aren't reliable. Would any of you more experienced folks be able to advise us? Surely, this ugly strip (backing?) isn't supposed to be seen. Thank you https://preview.redd.it/ub5w1mcv269f1.jpg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=60d8943a8875e49c026c8199651667ce729f787f https://preview.redd.it/z54jk4nv269f1.jpg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc86b413265fde84a6334f1276139648fe53dbf3 https://preview.redd.it/cyui0ncv269f1.jpg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=79507119fe884a814c8c22cccc1a930cc1ed2174 submitted by /u/Educational_Base_558 [link] [comments]
