sh!t that aint good, so far mines been ok, i get a bit of grill vibration with the bonnet open but nothing like that! what are your other mounts like? it will increase the vibration a bit but as the front beam is rubber mounted they normally absorb the extra vibrations. you might want to check the bushes on your cross member..... thats all i can think of to be honest.
