996TT Air Filter leaks?

I noticed that the plastic A/F housing really flexes at the corners between the bolts - the design seems prone to leaks past the filter at corners due to this. What a cheesy design! - I have never seen an A/F housing with this much flex.

Has anyone had issues with dirt getting around the corners that flex?
