Some German engineer had a late night out and on his CAD the next morning did a bit of a boo-boo.
It wasn't caught and 70,000 + of the cowls were ordered from the supplier and shipped.
What to do ? What to do ? I know, let's just ignore it and no one will notice.
There is a DIY here somewhere that remedies this .......
Found it ! :

I like post #10 in your link. Sounds like a winner. Otherwise the only shortcoming is once everything is tidied-up the need for "Back-To-Black" becomes achingly apparent. Walmart it is then, because whilst O'reilly has Back-To-Black I'm pretty sure they don't have "large kitchen trash bags"... lists dictate my life. I have a 3-product process to restoring rubber seals to like-new in most cases. The secret product is used in between the other two. It is AT-205 Reseal. Spread it until the rubber is wet and within an hour or so it will be absorbed by the rubber which becomes plumped-up like new. I used this process on the 4/5-feet long rubber seals at the base of the windshield and atop the cowl.
