Hood flutter fix

Ford anyone know what’s considered “abnormal” hood flutter vs what’s to be expected? Mine has flutter but I just assumed it was normal because it’s aluminum.
 
I would say abnormal is that you can see it moving or hear it while on the highway. The hood goes all the way to the sides, not like other modern cars, so I do expect side wind to make the hood "vibrate" every now and then.
 
My GX hood vibrates, mainly due to surface roughness, not speed, if you take the time to stare at it. But it's a lot less than my 2017 4Runner and about the same as the 2015 Tundra, and I never thought either of those was an issue at all.

I have zero problem with the GX hood.
 
took it in my '24 to get checked. Service report stated that clips were ordered to address the Hood flutter. no part numbers were listed and I picked up after the service dept closed so I don't have an explanation yet.
 
Mine is a 2024, production date 12/24. I took it in for the first service. I mentioned the hood flutter as mine has this problem. When I picked it up they said mine was not on the list to fix. The mechanic noted that the hood had the flutter on the receipt. I told them I would write to Lexus Corp. Office and see what they say. Paid a lot for this vehicle and it needs to be fixed.
