He posted a sort of DIY on this a long time ago, but it's not around anymore. 
I hate the fact that valuable information like that disappears from this site. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]

Yeah, but then he said that he fixed that by putting a piece of foam under the hood where it contacts the bumper. Then when it's down on the front bumper that piece of foam contacts the bumper instead of the hard metal of the hood doing so...
