Hood pad?

Hello all,

I've had my M4 for a couple months now. Love the car, but I think the lack of a pad under the hood sort of lets the engine compartment down. They could have a least sprayed some clear on the underside...

Anyway, it looks like the holes are there for the fasteners that would hold the pad on, so does anyone know if a regular 4 series hood pad would fit? Any reason not to have a hood pad? Can't weigh much.

I know some people won't/don't care, but I think it just looks "unfinished".

Thanks!
Nelson

Reasons would be weight, noise dampening and... well "M" basically. Lots of nice sensible cars out there with good hood pads.
