My bonnet tapes look different and are made of a different material on the sealing surface.

My looks a bit like a kind of long-pile velvet.

I haven't had any sealing problems at this point so far.

I am also familiar with the problem of the ends folding over. Since then, I always make sure that the rail is absolutely parallel to the upper windscreen frame when I fold the hood forwards.
