You dont even need blocks, when you shut the bonnet, rather than letting the back of the bonnet move down into those hinges, just hold the back edge of the bonnet up so those rollers sit on top of the hinges, push the front so it locks, voila, the back sits up, but the fronts locked down

Just looks like a bit of black plastic or painted metal riveted over the rear handle cut out

You can buy the black plastic from hobby craft
