im on my second set of new wiper blades and the passenger side front wiper seems to be fouling the edge of the window frame (was the same with both sets).
is this a common thing or am i doing something wrong?

What edge of the screen are you talking about? Bottom edge then the arm needs taking off the spigot and reseating slightly anti-clockwise so that the arc of the sweep doesn't quite reach the bottom of the screen. If the edge of the screen then your blade is too long. Replace with one slightly shorter.

I seem to recall when I got a set from Bongobits that all three blades were different lengths. I think (but my memory is very vague on this) it might have been 18" and 17" for the front and 16" for the back. Call Bongobits & check/order? :roll:
