sealed the hood.

i did not like the gap beween the hood and front bumper,paraniod about rain getting on the filter so i sealed it up with what it should have came with.this strip if from nissan i had to drill some holes in the bumper for the tabs to snap in.overall i think it looks a lot cleaner now without the void.

Nice job Kou! Looks a lot better than the half way full strip that we were looking at at the show

Nice. Now we need a part number for a strip that's the right length / size for our hoods and then a DIY!

Yeah, partnumber of the one you used would be great! Great Idea, but what about the gap by the headlights?

Just came in from looking at mine....for those wanting to do this try the rubber seal used on the cowling to seal the hood. Pulled mine and dry fitted. Plastic pins already there and when centered and with a few drilled holes....bingo. Don't imagine that trim piece would be to much and saves time. Just head to the dealer.
