RTV silicone sealant, maybe? I've been wondering if this would work; wrap the edge of the hood with Saran Wrap, and wet it down with some WD-40. Then run a bead of RTV along the inside of the opening. Close the hood, smooth out the bead and let it cure. Then open the hood and remove the Saran Wrap.
I haven't tried it, just a thought in my head at this point.

I think Basjoos used caulking on the Aerocivic, cut with a razor blade after it cured.
