Anyone done anything to clamp down the trailing edge of the passenger side of the bonnet? It seems awfully wobbly to me, moreso than my Chimaera even. I've not seen it lift at speed, but I think I've got a slight clonk coming from it now so I need to do something (need to go out with a passenger to confirm location of the noise IYKWIM).

It could do with something akin to those rally stylee locking pins (except I think that would look a bit maximus powerscum).

Mine also is a tad moveable. Now I a no aero...whodomething, but I reckon the wind rishing over it keeps it down wouldnt it?

I stuck a rubber pad/washer to each of the underside edges of the bonnet to fix the knocking noise, has worked a treat!!

I just stuck a pad under but I haven't had a chance to test it yet. I think the dealer disturbed the one which was originally there at service last week.

Still doesn't solve the 'flimsiness' though.
