My car had a cheap and nasty webbing bonnet strap fitted ( previous owner) and it had marked the paint work (micro scratching). I polished the paintwork and put a single buckle brown leather strap on the car.
I used a self adhesive velco ( smooth bit)on the back of the strap so it would not rub on the paint and replaced the bonnet strap.
I did the lot DIY for under £30.
But by choice would never have fitted a strap in the first place !
Cheap webbing strap !

Better replacement leather strap
