Found Radiator/Hood Weatherstrip Seals

After much searching to find a good BULK source of the weatherstripping seal used on the radiator and hood sides, here it is: Metro Supersoft TK46-F - Metro Moulded SUPERsoft Replacement Individual Weatherstripping Seals - Overview - SummitRacing.com

Now we can run it the entire length of the hood like the D2's (instead of 6") too.

Wonder if the heat under the hood would have a negative effect?

I'm guessing it would make a small difference in temperature, noise, and water ingress.

Just a follow up. I received the bulk weatherstrip seal today. They're a little bigger in all dimensions that the stock seal, so they get squished a bit more, but fit just fine on the areas mentioned.
