frunk window washer hose/wires

I've had my new 2020 Model S LR+ for about 6 weeks now and am very happy with it. Would not go back to an ICE.

In opening the frunk a couple of times I noticed the wiring casing and washer hoses rub back and forth along quite a sharp edge of the front fender next to the left side frunk hinge mechanism (photo attached). Although there is some extra protection on these wires and hoses, repeated opening and closing does move the same wire/hose surface back and forth on this sharp edge---eventually it seems like they could be cut into.

I put a piece of 1/4 inch polyethylene tubing, with a lengthwise cut, over this edge and it appears to provide a safe surface for the tubes to slide over. Here's the photo:

Not an Earth-shaking thing to post, but it will hopefully prevent a future problem.
