Remember the gap will alter anyway due to the movement of the chassis and the bonnet has movement albeit small.
My intent was to stop crap getting into the engine bay as the car drives forward and ensure all the seals were playing their part!!!!!!
while I was at this I torqued all of the bolts around the engine/struts and whatever else I could reach with my torque wrench without dismantling anything. I was amazed at how many bolts required 1/4 or 1/2 or full turns. When I finished the car actually felt very tight, probably all in my head!!!!!!

Raven, do you have a torque spec on those bolts?
