You are right, Tony those little holes are for rubber bumpers which you can still get from a good rubber supply company. Your insulation under the bonnet means you can't paint the nomenclature there - I think you'll find there's so much other noise a little drumming there is insignificant.

Can someone please tell me what these holes on upper cross piece of nose panel are for? I am hoping they are to take rubber grommets for bonnet to sit against! If they are, it will assist me greatly. If not.........crap, i'll have to find some other way of keeping bonnet still so it doesn't take more paint off.

I also made a little heat/acoustic shield for under bonnet. Not greatly concerned about heat there, but the added bulk should minimise 'drumming' of the sheet-metal.
