The factory installed the rubber buffers on the shroud lip so that the hood / bonnet would have something to support it between the hinges and the front latch. If you don't see a small mark on your bonnet paint were the buffers are, chances are there is no support. Try laying a 1/16 inch thick piece or rubber (old inner tube) on top of the buffer and close the bonnet. See if the hood still shakes.  It may take two. When the buffers are  in contact the bonnet will not shake side to side. Permanent solution is to properly install the buffers.
