Notice some of my Surefire flashlights, the HA colour on the bezel, body or tailcap is of a slightly different shade.

Examples
white A2 - HA : The body and tailcap colour is same. But the bezel is of a darker shade.

E1L - HA : The tailcap is of a darker shade while the bezel and body is of a lighter shade.

Is this a manufacturing defect ?

No it is not a defect, it is perfectly normal. There are always slight tint variations with HA. All of my surefires exhibit the same tint variations that your lights do. The reason various components on the one light are different is because they are anodised at different times, I think.
