Hi Ed.
In the same situation, I chose DZUS fasteners. they are virtually flush
with the bonnet sheet metal and do the job. I can send you a photo of how
they are set-up. Very simiple to fabricate and very low key. Like you, I
couldn't picture those big-a** rubber thingys on the smooth lines of a
bugeye.
