Nope, the metal doesn't rub against the trunk lid after it's folded over top of the weatherstripping. I know it's kinda goofy, but that was the way it was done. The weatherstripping tends to bulge out around the end of that tab when it's folded over. Kinda like when you would press your finger into pizza dough. Plus, the stripping is new and is puffy all around the entire perimeter of the trunk.
You would have to look a couple of trunk shots to understand.
