Hello,

I've tried a foam "rubber" gasket tape (5/16" thick x 3/4" wide) that has a sticky face. I got it from Home Depot, and it is meant for sealing building doors and/or windows. It is quite compressible, and it works wellbetween the hood and the top of the grill -- the only trick is to use a very sharp utility knife to trim off the excess (w/o scratching the paint...).
