Hood bumpers

[Murd]

Just got my mk4 hood trimmed and installed with FFR hinges, placed 4 small bumpers above the latch strikers as it shows in the manual, with one large bumper in the centre between them.
Any opinions on if I need to use any more bumpers before driving it? I plan on driving in gel coat for a year or two and trying to do a minimum of trimming and drilling so the body man doesn’t have to undo anything I’ve done.

Pretty much just wondering if driving it a bunch with bumpers only on the trailing edge of the hood will cause any problems.

It won't cause problems. Other than the back edge the bumpers are just a fitting aid.
