'overheating' as stated by her in the original post isnt her issue, its the fact that there is excessive heat in her engine bay (car still operates at a normal temp)... the engine has already made the heat and its just sitting there getting other things hot like her sri and bonnet.
as said before just go with the washers on the bonnet and try to get some heat wrapping done.
(1) A motor vehicle with a moveable body panel forward of the windscreen that covers an engine or luggage storage or battery compartment, must have a device to secure the panel.
(2) However, if the panel opens from the front in a way that partly or completely obstructs the driver’s forward view through the windscreen, the panel must have primary and secondary devices to secure the panel.

hmmm...i wonder what will happen if she makes the heat that the engine is producing dissipate more quickly? oh wait...captain obvious to the rescue...it will run cooler!
the person is trying to get of excess heat in the engine bay, so it's cooler underneath there.
to make it more efficient, then having heat trapped inside, the bonnet.
that's all the owner wants to do is remove that excess heat, that it has underneath the bonnet.
this will benefit the owner of THAT car, as they're motor does creat excess heat.
its illegal because like vents in your bonnet, if an oil line bursts oil may come thru the vents in the bonnet and onto the windscreen and may obscure the sigh of the driver thus causing an acco.
well so ive heard from one of those police in an interview on tt. *rolls eyes*
its also for when there is front (bonnet) impact in an accident. changing how it sits changes how it will react on impact

and you know this how? youve checked the temperatures, and know the ideal underbonnet temp? i reckon honda has tested it, and i also reckon honda has a better idea than you.

yeah there is probably (i say probably, not definately) some thing right at the start or end that says anything you do that changes the condition of the car from when it came out of the factory is not approved.
