Hey, during my repaint job I had the bonnet all aligned (it was hitting just at
the corner in front of the driver) and now it does the exact same. Up in the
centre and vibrates. I do have the seal along the edge next to the heater air
intakes but that does nothing to help. It did not vibrate before, but when it's
jammed at the corner next to the windscreen - well no surprise.
I would love a solution as well.

Subject: bonnet gaps and rubbers?
How much higher is the bonnet meant to be in the middle where it joins
the windscreen part?
The conical rubber adjusters are set properly - as its flush at the
edges, but it bulges in the middle.
I ask this question because the bonnet vibrates along the edge nearest
the windscreen.
I might have read somewhere that there are meant to be rubbers of some
sort that go along the lip of the bonnet?
