Laps,
I have the same front bumper on my black roadster, but that hood of yours has really got me thinking. It is an awesome total look !
I had to work with the middle of the hood/bumper gap after I installed mine. I noticed a slight spread on yours, too. It turns out that putting some 1/16" - 1/8" shims under the bumper fastening points and body, in the very center (on either side of the hood latch), closed it up just enough to make the gap even all the way across. There's enough flex in the bumper there to do it without cracking the FRP or paint. Just thought I'd pass that along.
Your machine looks great - I'm really liking that hood with that bumper . . .
