Greg/Pace - I have a 2008 G8 GT and I noticed under the hood towards the front of the car, there is a rubber seal designed to prevent grime/water from entering the engine bay. However, my rubber seal doesn't run most of the width of the hood - both sides basically stop at the beginning of each headlamp. It's my understanding that GM began using a longer version on 2009 G8s to help prevent grime/water from entering the engine bay over by each headlamp.
I hope I'm explaining this well enough. I recall a post with pictures somewhere in this forum but a search turned up no results. I'm interested in buying the longer version - can you please pm me quote for this? Thanks!
